The evolutionary history of a group of organisms especially as depicted in a family tree diagram showing the evolutionary interrelations of a group of organisms
derived from a common ancestral form. The ancestor is in the tree
“trunk”; organisms that have arisen from it are placed at the ends of
tree “branches.” The distance of one group from the other groups
indicates the degree of relationship; i.e., closely related
groups are located on branches close to one another. Phylogenetic trees,
although speculative, provide a convenient method for studying
phylogenetic relationships.

Answer:
An amino acid can be encoded by more than one codon.
Explanation:
Codons are triplets of nucleotides in mRNA that are used for the protein synthesis (translation). A codon specifies a single amino acid, but there are exceptions. tRNA molecule contain anticodons, triplets of nucleotides that are complementary to codons. So, during the translation, tRNA carries the amino acid, that corresponds to the codon in mRNA.
Degenerate genetic code (more than one codon can code for the same amino acid) is important, because when point mutation occurs it is possible that the amino acid remains unchanged.
