What term describes the property of the genetic code that allows multiple codons to code for the same amino acid?

Which of the following is NOT one of the five properties of the genetic code?

Which type of mutation results from a small number of base changes in an organism's DNA?

In the Central Dogma, what does the term 'genotype' refer to?

'Exceptions to the Central Dogma' primarily refer to processes where:

During translation, the mRNA base triplets are read in the 3' to 5' direction.

Reverse transcriptase synthesizes RNA from a DNA template in the process of information flow.

Each codon specifies the addition of only one of 64 amino acids.

Multiple codons code for the same amino acid due to the property of the genetic code called ambiguity.

Alleles of the same gene have different DNA sequences but produce proteins with identical amino acid sequences.

The central dogma of molecular biology states that RNA codes for DNA.

Point mutations occur at the chromosome level.

Exceptions to the Central Dogma always involve the flow of information from DNA to proteins.

The genetic code is characterized by having only one codon for each amino acid.

In the context of mutations, chromosome-level mutations always result in a change in an organism's phenotype.

The genetic code is specific to each organism and varies significantly from one species to another.

Genes can be transcribed and translated after being transferred from one species to another.

Point mutations involve large-scale changes in an organism's DNA.

The genetic code is non-redundant, meaning each codon uniquely corresponds to a single amino acid.

Exceptions to the Central Dogma primarily involve processes where information flows from proteins back to DNA.

The genetic code is ambiguous because each codon only codes for one amino acid.

During translation, the start codon also codes for the initiation of protein synthesis.

All 64 codons code for different amino acids in the genetic code.

Mutations only occur at the nucleotide level and never at the chromosome level.

The Central Dogma states that information flows from protein to gene to mRNA.
