In a molecule of double-stranded DNA, the amount of Adenine present is always equal to the amount of

• cytosine
• guanine
• thymine
• uracil

A type of substitution in which no  amino acids change is called 

• Missense
• Nonsense
• Silent
• Deletion

What is a codon?

• It is a three letter section of bases that are read by ribosomes to stamp amino acids into a protein
• They are the codes on the DNA (hence "code-on"
• It is a type of mutation that occurs when there has been a substitution, deletion or insertion.
• It is a made up word for this quiz. Nice try, Jewett.
