The "language" of mRNA is called the ​ (a)   , and it uses three-letter "words" called ​ (b)  

• genetic code

• codons

• nucleotide strategy

• anti-codons

• amino acids

Answer explanation

The 'language' of mRNA is referred to as the genetic code, and it uses three-letter 'words' called codons to encode specific amino acids during protein synthesis.
