Degeneration of Genetic codon is attributed to

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
Degeneration of Genetic codon is attributed to 3rd member of the codon.
Degeneracy or redundancy of codons is the redundancy of the genetic code, exhibited as the multiplicity of three-base pair codon combinations that specify an amino acid.
The degeneracy of the genetic code accounts for the existence of synonymous mutations. It results because there are more codons than encodable amino acids.
