Answer: The option that is not true is D) Each amino acid is specified by only one codon.

Codon can be defined as the sequence of three nucleotides ( present in DNA or mRNA) that corresponds to a particular amino acid. It helps in the process of translation as different amino acids ( that are linked to codons) are assembled to give a particular protein according to the sequence of codon.

There are 64 codons and 20 amino acids that make up the proteins present in the living systems. This indicates that several different codons can correspond to the same amino acid.

For instance, amino acid Valine is coded by four codons that is GUC, GUG, GUA, GUU.

Thus, option D) is incorrect.

In your own words, explain why an earthworm cannot survive if it were cut in half. PLEASE HURRY​
Masja [62]
It cannot survive because an earth worm will not become 2 new worm. The head of the worm may survive and regenerate a tail. But if original tail of the worm may not survive because it will not be able to grow a new head or the rest of its vital organs and it will die. I hope this helps. :)
