Having studied biology, and listened to instructions, you recognize there is a method that could be used to decode and solve these cryptic messages.

1) TTACTCTCAAACGCCTTATGATCAAAC

2) ATAGTTGGATTTGTTAACGGACCAAAC

THE CODE TABLE
---------------

AAT = A ATT = F CCC = K CTT = O
AAA = C CAT = G GTA = L GAT = P
ACT = D CAA = H CGG = M GAG = R
AGT = E CCT = I TTT = N GGT = S
TAG = T GTT = U TAT = W

TTG = space TAC = comma GGG = period

This is really confusing for me and I do not get it. And my teacher never explained it, so if you could help me, I would really appreciate it!!
Thank you very much

I'm not positive. But I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Remember, A and T always match up, and C and G always match up in DNA. So imagine that you're combining the other half of the DNA strand, then break it up into sets of 3 letters. I think. I hope I've helped.
