One way an amino acid differs from a lipid is that the amino acids contain?
Contain sulfur.
What does each codon in mRNA specify?
Each codeword on mRNA corresponds with a single amino acid. However, There can be multiple codewords corresponding with the same amino acid.
What are the three parts of an amino acid for Proteins?
The three parts of an Amino Acid are:The Amino Group (-NH2)The Carboxyl Group (-COOH)and an R Group that differs among the Amino Acids.All of these plus a Hydrogen Atom are chemically bonded to the Alpha Carbon.
Why amino acid called alpha amino acid?
The variable R group of each amino acid is attached to the carbon alpha to, or immediately adjacent to, the carbon bearing the carboxylic acid functionality.
How many codons are needed to specify 2 amino acids?
each codon have 3 nitrogenous bases . 3 nitrogenous bases = 1 amino acid or say 1 codon =1 amino acid ,so 2 codon = 2 amino acid

Contain sulfur.
What part of the each amino acid is different from the others?
side group
Each codon calls for a specific?
amino acid
What part of the amino acid is different in each amino acid different?
The "R" group

What is the difference between the amino acids?
Amino Acids have the following structure: R | | | H2N----------C----------COOH | | H There are bonds between each element/goup and the R and H should be bonded to the Carbon The difference between each amino acid lies in the variable "R" group that you see at the top. Each amino acid has a different combination of elements that make it unique from the others

What are the parts of an amino acid molecule?
Amino Acids are composed of three primary parts. Every amino acid has an amine and a carboxylic acid, but each amino acid has a side-chain specific to that acid.
What amino acid is technically not an amino acid?
proline is not an amino acid it is an imino acid
