Last updated: 4/15/2023

Which of the following statements about the genetic code is FALSE An amino acid may be coded by more than one set of triplet codon This is a correct statement A stop codon will end the process of protein synthesis and release the new polypeptide from the ribosomal apparatus The same codon which codes for the amino acid methionine also serves as a start codon The genetic code is virtually universal for animals and there is a similar code for plants
