Botany-Genetic Code
NEET Botany Genetic Code Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Easy-Class 12
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Codon type (i) Stop codons (b) Total codons (ii) 61 (c) Code feature (iii) Triplet (d) Amino acid (iv) More than one codon
Choose the correct matching:
A
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
C
a-iv, b-ii, c-iii, d-i
D
a-iii, b-i, c-iv, d-ii
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The genetic code is characterized by codons that are triplet in nature. There are 61 codons that specifically code for amino acids, while 3 function as stop codons. Additionally, some amino acids are encoded by more than one codon, reflecting the degeneracy of the genetic code.
