Question
- count how many amino acids composed the polypeptide that you created in translation. amino acids
To solve this, we need to refer to the polypeptide created during translation. Typically, in translation, each codon (a sequence of 3 nucleotides) codes for one amino acid, and we exclude the stop codon (if present). But since the specific polypeptide from the translation isn't provided here, we assume you have the sequence or the translated polypeptide. For example, if the mRNA used in translation has a certain number of codons (excluding stop codon), that number is the number of amino acids. Let's say, for a common example, if the translated polypeptide has 5 codons (excluding stop), then:
Step1: Identify the number of codons (excluding stop)
Assume the translated polypeptide has 5 codons (from your translation work).
Step2: Each codon codes for 1 amino acid
So number of amino acids = number of codons. If codons = 5, then amino acids = 5. (But this depends on your actual translation result. Let's say from your translation, the number of amino acids is, for example, 10. You need to count the amino acids in your translated polypeptide.)
Since the problem requires your specific translation result, let's assume you counted and found, for example, 10. (Replace with your actual count from the translation.)

10 (Replace with the actual number from your translated polypeptide. For example, if your polypeptide has 8 amino acids, put 8 here.)
