The one aspect which is not a salient feature of genetic code is its being

  • degenerate

  • ambiguous

  • universal

  • specific

Solution

D.

specific

The genetic code is degenerate, i.e, a given amino acid can be specified by more than one codons.
The genetic code inside the cell medium is said to be non-ambiguous because a particular condon always codes are same amino acid. But in certain rare cases the genetic code is found to be ambiguous, i.e some condon code for different amino acids under different conditions. The genetic code is almost universal.
