Which molecule is common to the metabolism of carbohydrates fatty acids amino acids and alcohol?
The metabolism of carbohydrates, fatty acids, amino acids, and alcohol produces the same molecule for energy: ATP (adenosine triphoshate).
How can one amino acid have a great effect?
If you mean how does changing one amino acid have a great effect, that single change may alter the shape of the protein in a critical area, which can make the protein function poorly or not at all.
What are amino acids that cannot be made by metabolism called?
Amino acids that cannot be made by metabolism are called essential amino acids. These amino acids must be obtained through diet.
What is an amino alcohol?
An amino alcohol is an organic compound containing both an amino and an aliphatic hydroxyl functional group.
In the metabolism of amino acids for energy what is the fate of the amino group?
Excreted as urea. this was the answer for my test
What is the fate of amino group in the metabolism of amino acids for energy?

Chemical process in a cell?
Metabolism
Amino acids that cannot be made by metabolism are said to be?
Essential
Is urea a product of fatty acid metabolism?
no it is a product of amino acid metabolism (urea cycle in liver)
What type of reaction removes the -NH2 group in an amino acid to prepare the amino acids for further metabolism?
dehydration
PH effect on enzymes?
A change in pH can alter the ionization of the R groups of the amino acids. When the charges on the amino acids change, hydrogen bonding within the protein molecule changes and the molecule changes shape. The new shape therefore may not be effective
The disease phenylketonuria is related chiefly to abnormal metabolism of?
a certain amino acid
