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 |
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.
