Answer:

Third position

Explanation:

Degenerate nature of genetic code refers to the fact that one amino acid can be encoded by more than one triplet combinations of nucleotides. However, if an amino acid is encoded by more than one triplets, the multiple triplets for that amino acid differ from each other with respect to the type of nucleotide present at the third position. For example,  isoleucine is encoded by AUU, AUC, and AUA. The third nucleotide is different in these genetic codes.
