An mRNA that consists of 60 nucleotides directs a primary polypeptide chain containing 18 amino acids to be synthesized.​

<h3>What is the genetic code?</h3>

The genetic code is a series of instructions by which a cell can synthesize proteins through two sequential processes: transcription (mRNA) and translation (protein).

The translation is produced from messenger RNAs (mRNAs), where triples of nucleotides or codons give rise to specific aminoacids.

In conclusion, an mRNA that consists of 60 nucleotides directs a primary polypeptide chain containing 18 amino acids to be synthesized.​

Lynna [10]
