In the Morse code,a series of dots and dashes code for letters of the alphabet.How is this analogous to the genetic code?
A)There is complementarity in the genetic code (A is complementary to T,and C is complementary to G))
B)The bases that make up DNA are coded by the sugar-phosphate backbone.
C)The machinery involved in DNA synthesis is analogous to the telegraph equipment used in sending Morse code.
D)The bases of DNA code for the more complex amino acid sequence of the various proteins found in cells.

Just like dots and dashes in Morse code, the bases of DNA (A, T, C, and G) code for the more complex amino acid sequence of the various proteins found in cells. Similar to how different combinations of dots and dashes can represent different letters, different sequences of nucleotides in DNA can code for different amino acids.
