Griffith showed that although a deadly Griffith showed that although a deadly strain of bacteria could be made strain of bacteria could be made harmless by heating it, some factor in harmless by heating it, some factor in that strain is still able to change other that strain is still able to change other harmless bacteria into deadly ones. He harmless bacteria into deadly ones. He called this the "transforming factor."called this the "transforming factor."

A codon is a three-base "word" that codes for one amino acid.
Several codons form a "sentence" that translates into a polypeptide.
