Which of the following answers describes an example of the degenerate nature of the code? A. AUU codes for Ile in a wide variety of species B. There are no pauses or commas in the code. C. The sequence "AUGCCGAUU" is read as three codons, AUG, then CCG, then AUU D. AUU, AUC, and AUA all code for lle
