Expert Solution
Genetic code and codon

mRNA consist of mononucleotide sequence that specifies amino acids sequence in peptide chain.

One amino acid codes for mRNA triplet base sequence.

There are total of 64 possible combination, with four bases when you take three bases. Thus only 20 code words are needed for each amino acid
