What are three nucleotides that together specify one amino acid?
TRIPLET CODE
How many nucleotides are needed to specify three acids?
Nine nucleotides are needed to specify three amino acids.
The number of nucleotides required to specify an amino acid is?
Three nucleotides are required for an amino acid. These nucleotides are an amine, carbolic acid, and a side chain specific to the amino acid.
How manny codons are needed to specify three amino acids?
three. (= 9 nucleotides)
What are three nucleotides that specify a single amino acid to be added to a polypeptide?
CONDON
Three nucleotides that together specify one aminoacid?
Codon
How many nucleotide bases does it take to specify one amino acid?
i think nine bases are needed for three amino acids because i think it takes three bases to make one amino acid
What is the combination of three mRNA nucleotides?
Three sequential mRNA nucleotides are called a codon, which codes for one amino acid.
Is it 1 or 3 codons equal one amino acid?
One. A codon, made up of three DNA bases (ATG, for example) corresponds to one amino acid. A whole bunch of codons strung together on the DNA corresponds to a whole bunch of amino acids, ultimately strung together to form a peptide, or protein.
Can an amino acid be coded for by more sequence of three nucleotides?
no
How many nucleotides are needed to specify one codon?
three.
How many nucleotides are necessary to code for a polypeptide that is 200 amino acids long?
In the genetic code, a sequence of three nucleotides forms a codon, which codes for one amino acid. So for each amino acid, there are three nucleotides. Therefore, 600 nucleotides are needed to make 200 amino acids.
