amino acids
chromosome

trna
uracil

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides that together form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule. Specifically, codons are found in mRNA (messenger RNA). Adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine (in DNA) and uracil (in RNA) are nucleotides, not the carriers of codons. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, chromosomes are structures containing DNA, DNA has genes but codons are in mRNA, nucleotides are the monomers, proteins are the end product of translation, transcription is the process of making RNA from DNA, translation is the process of making protein from mRNA, and tRNA carries anticodons. So mRNA contains codons.

Answer:

mRNA
