Answer 1

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

• AUG - methionine
• UCC - serine
• CAC - histidine
• ACA - threonine
• GUU - valine
• UGG - tryptophan
• CCC - proline
• GGG - glycine

Features of genetic code:-

• The code is degenerate as some of the amino acids are coded by more than one codon.
• The code is universal, like in every organism UCC will code for serine .
• AUG is the start codon, it acts as initiator .
• UAG , UGA , UAA do not code for any amino acids thus acts as stop codon .
• So , in total 61 codons code for amino acids and 3 act as stop codon.
