According to the genetic code,some amino acids are encoded by more than one codon. This characteristic of the genetic code is . . . . . . .

Degeneracy of genetic code refers to$-$

Statement $I :$ The codon $'AUG'$ codes for methionine and phenylalanine.
Statement $II :$ $'AAA'$ and $'AAG'$ both codons code for the amino acid lysine.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Identify the correct match between the codons and coding functions.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$A. \; AUG$	$1. \; \text{Phenylalanine}$
$B. \; UAA$	$2. \; \text{Methionine}$
$C. \; UUU$	$3. \; \text{Tryptophan}$
$D. \; UGG$	$4. \; \text{Termination}$

Assertion : $UAA, UAG$ and $UGA$ terminate protein synthesis.
Reason : They are not recognised by $tRNA$.

Which of the following molecules contains the genetic code?
