Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The correct option is C UGG The employees ran outside and started showering water on the building but the fire did not stop.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are 3 STOP codons in the genetic code-UAG, UAA, and UGA. These codons signal the end of the polypeptide chain during translation.
Detailed explanation-4: -A start codon is made up of the letters ATG, which codes for the amino acid methionine.
