Earth Science: Genetics Human – Feature Characteristics: Translation The genetic code is shared by all organisms and is made up of codons. Combinations of these instruct the formation of the amino acids that are used in protein biosynthesis. The structure of DNA consists of nucleic acids with four different nitrogen bases. Of these, a unit … Read more
