In nature there are many more variations amino acids than the simple 20 found in humans. However, when analyzing the human genome sequence, there is a code for all 64 permutations (4^3), only some of them share amino acids. This is a safe-guard against mutations of one or two nucleotides. For example, the amino acid Alanine is coded with four different nucleotide sequences: GCA, GCC, GCG, GCU. Also some amino acids code the same like UUU &UUC

Answer:
C. substances that are used up in a reaction
Explanation:
Substances are combined in a chemical reaction to give rise to other substances. The substances that come together are called REACTANTS while the substances that are produced are called PRODUCTS.
Reactants are used up in the reaction to give rise to new products at the end of the reaction. For example, in the reaction as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
CO2 (carbon dioxide) and water (H2O) are the REACTANTS of the reaction, which are used up to form glucose and oxygen (products)
