Aug is a start codon, gau codes for aspartic acid, and ggu codes for glycine. this is true for the simplest bacteria, the amoeba,
and multicellular plants. what description best explains this phenomenon?
the genetic code is universal and suggests common ancestry across all
groups of life
the genetic code has similar features across most domains of life, with
substantial differences as well
the genetic code is only similar for these three codons, but other codons
will result in different amino acids.
the genetic code is the same for these three species due to convergent
evolution but does not indicate common ancestry.
