Answer:

• The genetic code is based on sequences of three bases which are called as Codons.

Explanation:

• We know that from the Central Dogma of molecular biology that DNA forms RNA and RNA forms proteins which expresses the characters into the cell.

• This genetic information is given in DNA or mRNA ( messenger RNA) in the form of various base sequences. This sequences are called as codons.

• These codons contains coded Information about the characters of the protein and it's functions in the cell

• Thia information is read by the ribosomes and is expressed in the cells.

• These codons are universal in nature, which means that a particular codon will only form a specific protein.

• For example, the codon AUG always forms methionine. It also acts as start codon.
