Expert Solution
Step 1

Answer : 

Q13. A. A genetic codon is composed of 3 nucleotides. Hence, condon is triplet in nature. For example, ATG is a codon containing 3 nucleotides. 

Given DNA sequence is 

5'- ATG GCG CGA CTG ACT - 3'

Therefore, the total number of nucleotides present in this sequence are 15.
