The amino acid tryptophan (Trp) is coded by only one specific codon in the genetic code: UGG. Therefore, the correct response is not among the provided options, but if limited to the available choices, the closest answer is:
D. 6 (which is incorrect, as there is only one codon for tryptophan).
So, to clarify, the accurate answer is that there is only **1 codon** for tryptophan.
