A triplet codon represents each amino acid

A triplet codon represents each amino acid. 20 amino acids encoded for by 4 nucleotides By deduction: 1 nucleotide/amino acid = 4 1 = 4 triplet combinations 2 nucleotides/amino acid = 4 2 = 16 triplet combinations 3 nucleotides/amino acid = 4 3 = 64 triplet combinations
