Answer:

64.

Explanation:

It is 64 because there are 20 amino acids with four bases ( A,T,C and G).

and genetic code can be read in triplets and also the four bases can occupy the positions. Eachh amino acid can be coded by the triplet codons. A triplet codon shows three nucleotides of the mRNA template that can code for amino acid

Therefore the number of codons is 4×4×4= 64.

Exposure to teratogens after organogenesis is complete may most likely result in select one:
Ivenika [448]

The teratogens can be defined as any physical, chemical, or infections agents that have the ability to penetrate the protective layers of the embryo, and affect its viability. The overall development and the development of the different organ systems might be affected because of these teratogens. When the embryo is exposed to the teratogens after the organogenesis is complete, it is most likely that the fetus will suffer from the stunted growth. When the organogenesis is complete, the organs are already formed, and hence, no severe damage can occur to them. Down's syndrome will result if the chromosomal abnormality occur in the fetus, which is not likely after the organogenesis is already complete. Any kind of severe anatomical defects are also least likely after organogenesis is completed. Therefore, the chances of having stunted growth are high.
