How do cells get proteins they need from food?

Enzymes break down food proteins into smaller molecules that can be carried by blood.During digestion protiens, which are chains of amino acids, are broken down into smaller chains. This is done so that the amino acids can be synthesized in the body.

How are amino acids polypeptides and proteins related?

In Biology it bis tested that when proteins are broken down amino acids are formed this explains the relationship of proteins and amino acids and for polypeptides there is the theory that all peptides and poly peptides are polymers of amino acids.
