Biology

Answer:

This means that one amino acid can be coded by more that one codon.

Explanation:

A triplet code that code for an amino acid during translation is called genetic code. The genetic code is said to be redundant because a single amino acid can be coded by more that one triplet codon.  

So there can be synonymous codon for one amino acid. For example, leucine, serine, and arginine have 6 synonymous codons.

The genetic code is unambiguous also because each triplet codon can only code for a particular single amino acid. Genetic code is also universal which means the same code is used in all life forms.

In this case; the round pea shape is dominant to the wrinkled shape;which means the phenotype of round shape will be expressed when we have both homozygous dominant (RR) and heterozygous (Rr), while the wrinkled shape will be expressed by homozygous recessive (rr).
