Question

Identify the property of genetic code represented by the following case:

Each codon codes for a particular amino acid.

Options

• Genetic code is universal.

• The genetic code is unambiguous, meaning that each codon codes for a specific amino acid; the same codon will not code for two different amino acids.

• Genetic code is degenerated.

• Genetic code is commaless.

Answer 1

Genetic code is non-ambiguous.

Explanation:

The genetic code is unambiguous, meaning that each codon codes for a specific amino acid; the same codon will not code for two different amino acids.
