ANSWER:-
➡️Genetic code is triplet. As discussed earlier, singlet and doublet codons cannot form 20 combinations, which is the minimum requirement, therefore triplet codon is a necessity, so that all the amino acids must be coded. Genetic code is non-overlapping.One base of a codon is not used by the other codons.
➡️The genetic code is degenerate because there are many instances in which different codons specify the same amino acid.
➡️A genetic code in which some amino acids may each be encoded by more than one codon.
