Explanation / Answer

Correct: the correct sequence of the amino acids of the encoded peptide is given in option C. This sequence justifies all the criteria of genetic code.

Hence, the option (C) is correct.

Incorrect: the other options has missing correct positions of coding.

Hence, the options (A), (B), and (D) are incorrect.
