The correspondence between the sequence of bases in DNA and the sequence of amino acids in a protein is called the genetic code. Could someone describe this statement to me in more detail...

The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells.


Specifically, the code defines a mapping between tri-nucleotide sequences called codons and amino acids; every triplet of nucleotides in a nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid.

I can't really. I did get an Atari 2600 for Christmas one year when I was little. I wonder where it is today? Huh?
