Hi,

How do I know the maximum number of amino acids that can be formed from an X number of mRNA bases?

I understand that 3 bases = 1 codon = amino acid. But I also know that the 3rd base is a Wobble position. That leaves us with 2 bases = 1 amino acid.

In their explanation, they didn't consider the Wobble position. Is a mistake or am I just overthinking this question?
