Explain the importance of the nitrogen base and their role in preserving the code
sukhopar [10]

Ans.

Genetic codes provide information for the protein synthesis as each code specifically codes a particular amino acid that gets joined in polypeptide chain during the process of translation.

Each genetic code is three letter code, made up of three nitrogenous bases. There are four different bases in DNA or RNA that make sixty four codes with different combinations, out of which sixty one code for amino acids and three act as stop codons.

Thus, nitrogenous bases are important in preserving the genetic codes.
