Answer:

The nucleotide codons used may differ from the normal gene as long as the amino acids translated are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

A codon may be defined as the sequence of the three DNA or the RNA nucleotides which represents a specific amino acid or the stops signal during the protein synthesis.

There are basically 20 (twenty) amino acids that are having 64 codons for them. Out of 64 codons, 61 codon represents the amino acids and the remaining three are the stop signals.
