The space probe HEA1 returns to earth following a trip to the
planet Tantoun. Analysis of samples from this planet reveals that
proteins are composed of 16 different amino acids, while DNA
contains only two bases: rosine (R) and ziadine (Z).

your reasoning.
b) How many of the codons in this minimum genetic code will
contain at least two Zs? Explain your reasoning.
