Answer:
The genetic code consists of the sequence of bases in DNA or RNA. Groups of three bases form codons, and each codon stands for one amino acid (or start or stop). The codons are read in sequence following the start codon until a stop codon is reached. The genetic code is universal, unambiguous, and redundant.

Explanation:
The genetic code is the set of rules by which a linear sequence of nucleotides specifies the linear sequence of a polypeptide. That is, they specify how the nucleotide sequence of an mRNA is translated into the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide.
