1. Given that a DNA molecule is used as a template, how many mRNA molecules are needed if each mRNA molecule has an average of $10^4$ nucleotides? The number of nucleotides in the given single strand of ADN is $3 \times 10^4$.
2. Solution Steps
First, we need to recognize that the mRNA will have the same number of nucleotides as a single strand of DNA template.
Therefore the number of nucleotides in the mRNA .
Next, we can calculate the number of mRNA molecules:
3. Final Answer
The number of mRNA molecules needed is 3.
