The right answer is 20 aminoacids per second.
Transcription is a mechanism for synthesizing RNA from DNA.
Translation is a mechanism for synthesizing a polypeptide sequence from mRNA by converting the nucleotide triplet (codons) to amino acids.
So if one amino acid corresponds to three nucleotides. The polypeptide synthesis rate should be 20 amino acids per second for 60 nucleotides per second.
3 nucleotides ==> 1 amino acid
60 nucleotides ==> 60/3 = 20 amino acids.
How can we solve it if we don't have the picture?
By manipulating the substrates of the reaction, the enzyme can lower the necessary energy needed to make the reaction occur.
Enzymes; lipids, proteins, carbs, and nucleic acids. Mainly proteins.
A single fundamental similarity and or unity among all living organisms, is that all living organisms are composed of the basic units is life known as cells.
