Ribosomes can translate at a rate of 20 amino acids/sec. How long will a ribosome take to translate 1 mRNA of coding length of 1321 nts?

Give the answer in seconds/protein made from the mRNA of the given length

The translation rate of ribosomes is, 20 amino acids/sec.

The time needed to take to translate 1 mRNA of coding length of 1321 nts is = 1321 / 60 = 22.01 sec. (since each amino acid includes a 3 base codon)
