Vedclass · Answer

(B) The genetic code is non-ambiguous. $A$ non-ambiguous code means that there is no ambiguity regarding a particular codon. One codon specifies only one amino acid and not any other. There are $64$ codons in total. Out of these $64$,$3$ are stop codons (nonsense codons),which do not code for any amino acid,while the remaining $61$ code for one of the $20$ amino acids. Each codon is specific to a single amino acid,thus the code is not ambiguous.

Genetic Code	Amino Acid	Anticodon
