Question 27

During translation in a eukaryotic cell, a mature mRNA molecule of length 543 nucleotides (measured from the first nucleotide of the start codon to the last nucleotide of the stop codon) is translated at a ribosome.

How many amino acids will make up the initial polypeptide chain, and how many tRNA molecules will bind to the ribosome during this process?

181181181 amino acids and 181181181 tRNA molecules

180180180 amino acids and 180180180 tRNA molecules
