Assertion : An mRNA has both initiation codon and termination codon. Reason : It specifies only a single polypeptide or number of them.

Consider the following statements : Assertion (A) : Amber codon is a termination codon . Reason (R ) : If in a m-RNA, a termination codon is present, the protein synthesis stops abruptly whether the protein synthesis is complete or not. Now select you answer from code given below :
