A) they are read in a non-overlapping fashion.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Codons on mRNA are read in a non-overlapping fashion, can form hydrogen bonds with tRNA, may specify initiation points, and can be read by proteins rather than tRNA's. However, a single codon cannot specify more than one amino acid, so option E is inaccurate.
