A Researcher Develops 2 Functional MRNA Sequences Composed of CUC

A researcher develops 2 functional mRNA sequences composed of CUC and CUU trinucleotide repeats, respectively.  He subsequently incubates these mRNAs in a solution containing functional ribosomes and tRNAs charged with the appropriate amino acids.  After several hours, it is found that both mRNA sequences produce polypeptide chains containing leucine repeats.  This observed finding is due to which of the following genetic principles?

A) Ambiguity
B) No punctuation
C) Transition
D) Universality
E) Wobble
