The correct answer is '3'.

Explicación

## Step 1A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides that corresponds to a specific amino acid in the process of protein synthesis. This is a fundamental concept in molecular biology.## Step 2Each amino acid is specified by one codon. Therefore, to specify three amino acids, we would need three codons.
