Alphabetically, the first 10 amino acids are alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, histidine, and hydroxyproline. The other ten are isoleucine, leucine, lysine methionine, phenylalanine, proline, pyroglutamatic, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, and valine.
The 20 standard amino acids are the most common and well known because they are used in protein synthesis.
They are:
Alanine, Ala, A
Arginine, Arg, R
Asparagine, Asn, N
Aspartic Acid, Asp, D
Cysteine, Cys, C
Glutamine, Gln, Q
Glutamic Acid, Glu, E
Glycine, Gly, G
Histidine, His, H
Isoleucine, Ile, I
Leucine, Leu, L
Lysine, Lys, K
Methionine, Met, M
Phenylalanine, Phe, F
Proline, Pro, P
Serine, Ser, S
Threonine, Thr, T
Tryptophan, Trp, W
Tyrosine, Tyr, Y
Valine, Val, V
Non-essential amino acids can be created from other chemicals found in the body. Essential can not and must be found in food. Here is a list of the different amino acids: Non-essential * Alanine (synthesized from pyruvic acid) * Arginine (synthesized from glutamic acid) * Asparagine (synthesized from aspartic acid) * Aspartic Acid (synthesized from oxaloacetic acid) * Cysteine * Glutamic Acid (synthesized from oxoglutaric acid) * Glutamine (synthesized from glutamic acid) * Glycine (synthesized from serine and threonine) * Proline (synthesized from glutamic acid) * Serine (synthesized from glucose) * Tryosine (synthesized from phenylalanine) Essential * Histidine * Isoleucine * Leucine * Lysine * Methionine * Phenylalanine * Threonine * Tryptophan * Valine

I think there's like, 8 essential amino acids but 20 standard amino acids. Always got confused on that.
Alenine,Argenine,Aspartic acid,Asperegin,Cystin,Glysine,Glutamin,Glutamic acid,Histidine,Isoleusine,Leusin,Lysine,Methionine,Phenyle alenine,Proline,Serine,Thrionine,Triptopan,Tyrosine,Valine
20 amino acids make up all the proteins in your body.
About 20 different types of amino acid molecules.
This question doesn't make much sense. There are more than three amino acids found in proteins. There are about 20. Some amino acids are more common than others, for example glutamine is one of the most common found in humans.
Ever wonder what the smallest protein is? Apparently it's TRP-Cage, a protein with only 20 amino acids derived from the saliva of Gila monsters.
The only element that is not found in any of the 20 essential amino acids but is found in nucleic acids is Phosphorus. It is found in the "Sugar-Phosphate backbone" of nucleic acid but is not found in any of the essential amino acids. Many proteins interact with phosphate groups but they do not make up the protein.
20 amino acids make up all the proteins in your body.
Amino acid = Smallest building block of proteins; 20 of them. In this order. Amino acid < dipeptide ( two peptides ) < polypeptide (many peptides ) < Protein
there is only 20 amin acid in our bodies but we only use 11 of them
Answer 1The 20 amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.Answer 2You might consider it a protein because it makes up a protein, but it is not actually a protein.
About 20 different types of amino acid molecules.

The way you stated your question doesn't make any sense. Proteins are a combination of "amino acids". Amino acids are monomers of proteins. There are 20 amino acids that arrange themselves differently to make a single protein.
20^1000 hope this helps(:
Even though there are some variants among biochemists, we can consider this: a chain or polymer consisted of 2 to 10 or 12 amino acids is called a peptide. A polymer formed by 12 to 20 or 25 amino acid chain is called a polypeptide. And a polymer of more than 20 or 25 amino acids is called a protein.
The only element that is not found in any of the 20 essential amino acids but is found in nucleic acids is Phosphorus.

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are simply chains of amino acids. I think you meant to ask do proteins have amino acids. Amino acids as the name indicates (Amino) have amine groups, carboxylic acid groups and a side chain that varies depending on the amino acid (20 differnet types).
