Answer: -
Question no 20:-TRUE.
EXPLANATION: -
**The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells.
**Those genes that code for proteins are composed of tri-nucleotide units called codons, each coding for a single amino acid.
***There are altogether 64 codons are present.
****Of these 64 codons, 61 represent amino acids, and three are stop signals. But there are only 20 amino acids available.
***Although each codon is specific for only one amino acid (or one stop signal), the genetic code is described as degenerate, or redundant,
***Because a single amino acid may be coded for by more than one codon.

There a redundancy, meaning more than one codon may encode for the same amino acid, built...

QUESTION 8 More than one codon can specify each amino acid in the genetic code. The genetic code is a) specific b) ordered c) degenerate d) suppressive e) triplicate
What is a function of an AUG codon other than to start a new protein-coding sequence?...
What is a function of an AUG codon other than to start a new protein-coding sequence? Why is the nearly universal genetic code an indication that all of life had a single origin? How long would the mRNA need to be if it coded for a 150-amino-acid-long protein? Which codon position is most often responsible for the redundancy of the genetic code
How do I use the genetic code to determine the exact codon for an amino acid?...
How do I use the genetic code to determine the exact codon for an amino acid? (ex. how do I find the exact codon for Lys?)

4. A codon that specifies the amino acid Gly undergoes a single-base substitution to become a nonsense mutation. According to the genetic code, is this mutation a transition or a transversion? At which position of the codon does the mutation occur? 2 pts

In the process of translation, mRNA attaches to ribosomes DNA is replicated proteins are synthesized RNA is synthesized QUESTION 11 What does it mean when we say the genetic code is unambiguous? More than one codon can specify the addition of the same amino acid. The genetic code is different for different domains of organisms. Each codon can specify the addition of only one amino acid. The genetic code is universal (the same for all organisms).

Question Completion Status: Question 10: The genetic code consists of 64 triplets of nucleotides (called codons). Each codon (with the exception of the 3 stop codons) encodes for one of the 20 amino acids used in the synthesis of proteins. This produces some redundancy in the code as most amino acids are encoded by more than one codon. One codon, AUG serves two related functions: it signals...
