Solution

Two different amino acids are never encoded by the same codon, this character of genetic code is called non-ambiguous.

Explanation:

This property states that one specific codon will always code for the same amino acid. There is no “ambiguity” or confusion; for example, AUG always codes for Methionine and nothing else.
