insens350 [35]

Answer:

13,636 seconds = 227.3 minutes = 3.79 hours

Explanation:

The titin protein has a molecular weight of 3,000,000 daltons, while the average molecular mass of one amino acid is 110 daltons, so it is expected that this protein is composed of 27,273 amino acids (3,000,000 daltons/110 daltons = 27,272.72). Moreover, and since the translation rate is two amino acids per sec, it is expected that the protein will be synthesized in approximately 3.79 hours (27,272.72/2 = 13,636 seconds = 227.3 minutes = 3.79 hours).
