Understand the context: The problem is asking about a tool used to determine the relationship between triplet codons and amino acids.
Recall the concept of the genetic code: The genetic code is a set of rules used by living cells to translate information encoded within genetic material (DNA or mRNA sequences) into proteins.
Identify the tool: The Genetic Code Chart is a reference that shows which triplet codons correspond to which amino acids.
Differentiate the options: NMR Spectroscopy, X-ray Crystallography, and Mass Spectrometry are techniques used for structural analysis and identification of molecules, not for determining codon-amino acid relationships.
Conclude: The correct tool for determining the specific triplet codons that correspond to each amino acid is the Genetic Code Chart.
