Each Codon equates to an amino acid, there are 20 amino acids. However the genetic code is said to be redundant because multiple codons can code for the same amino acid.
Using the table below we can determine the correct codon for an amino acid.
So, if we are looking for the amino acid with the codon sequence AUG.
This codes for the amino acid Methionine.
The animation bellow illustrates how to find the appropriate amino acid
