You are excited because your lab is studying the first microorganisms retrieved from Mars! Interestingly, their genetic material
Oliga [24]

Answer: The maximum number of amino acids that could be coded is 2

Explanation:

  • A codon in this microorganism is 2 bases instead of 3 bases .
  • In order to encode a protein a sequence requires a start and stop codon
  • If you assume no start codon: then only 2 bases would make up the stop codon.
  • This leaves 4 bases which is 2 codons. This would encode 2 amino acids.

  • If you assume a start and stop codon, then each codon would be allocated 2 base pairs each =  4 base pairs
  • This only leaves 2 base pairs, a single codon which would only code for 1 amino acid
