The space probe HEA1 returns to earth following a trip to theplanet Tantoun. Analysis of samples from this planetreveals that proteins are composed of 16 different amino acids,while DNA contains only two bases: rosine (R) and ziadine (Z).
a. What is the minimum codon size in this genetic code? Explain yourreasoning.
b. How many of the codons in this minimum genetic code willcontain at least
two Zs? Explain your reasoning.
