4. Codon Charts

5. Codon Charts

6. Codon Bingo I will read an mRNA codon.
You will translate the codon to determine which amino acid it codes for using your codon chart.
If you have that amino acid on your card, write the mRNA codon I said in that space using a dry erase marker.
Once, you have bingo, say BINGO!

7. Breaking the Code
Use your notes to help you complete the Breaking the Code practice handout.
If you have questions, please raise your hand so I can come around and help you.
