What else can I help you with?
What cannot be used to make body proteins?
Fatty Acids
What does fatty acids do for your body?
make you fat...
What do fatty acids make up in the human body?
Fatty acids make up cell membranes and are used as a source of energy in the human body.
What are two fatty acids the body cannot make?
The body cannot make omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. These are essential fatty acids that must be obtained from the diet as our body cannot synthesize them. Omega-3 fatty acids are found in fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts, while omega-6 fatty acids are found in seeds, nuts, and vegetable oils.
What are the two essential fatty acids that the body can't make?
The two essential fatty acids that the body can't produce are omega-3 fatty acids (such as alpha-linolenic acid) and omega-6 fatty acids (such as linoleic acid). These fatty acids must be obtained through diet as they are crucial for maintaining overall health and functioning of the body.
What is the purpose of fatty acids to the body?
They combine with glycerols to make lipids
What energy and particles does the body harvest from digestion?
Heat energy, mechanic energy, and new chemical energy.
Why do you need amino acids in your diets?
amino acids make up proteins and proteins make up DNA which has all the information your body needs
Long chains of amino acid are found in?
Amino acids bond together to make long chains and those long chains of amino acids are also called proteins.
How does Trans Fatty Acid influence Heart Disease?
Yes, and is actually worse than the sys form of fatty acids. The only difference between sys and trans fatty acids are the angles of the molecules. In nature, only sys fatty acids are made, but through chemistry (or through over heating oils), we are able to make trans fatty acids. The problem is that your body can only recognize the sys form. So if you have sys fatty acids in your body, your body knows how to remove them, but if you have trans fatty acids in your body, your body doesn't know how to remove them. As a result the trans fatty acids build up in your system and can cause heart disease. Sys fatty acids can cause heart disease also, but since your body is constantly removing them, it forms slower than the trans form.
What repeating units make up a protein fatty acids peptide acids amino acids carboxylic acids?
A protein is made up of chains of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Fatty acids are the building blocks of lipids, while peptides are made up of chains of amino acids but are shorter than proteins. Carboxylic acids are organic compounds that contain a carboxyl group.
What are the subunits of a protine?
The subunits of proteins are called amino acids. We use twenty of these amino acids to make all the proteins the body uses.
