Question

Because most of the amino acids are represented
by more than one codon, the genetic code is
(a) overlapping (b) wobbling
(c) degenerate (d) generate

Answer 1

Answer:

the required answer is (d) generate

Answer 2

Genetic code of amino acids:

• Option “C” is correct i.e. degenerate.

• Because more than one amino acid is represented by more than 1 codon so the genetic code of amino acids is degenerate.

• Degeneracy of genetic codons can be described as particular amino acid that can be coded by more than one triplet codon. For instance, glutamic acid can be coded by GAA and GAG codons.
