You are excited because your lab is studying the first microorganisms retrieved from Mars! Interestingly, their genetic material
consists of a single-stranded nucleic acid with six different nitrogenous bases. Like organisms from Earth, segments of the nucleic acid contain the code for making proteins. If the genetic code in these organisms was read in groups of 2 bases instead of 3, what is the maximum number of amino acids that could be coded for assuming that only one codon functioned as a stop codon?
Well, i took the test and i put artificial selection and got it right. The definition of artificial selection is "The breeding of plants and animals to produce desirable traits" So the answer is A
