The human body cannot synthesize or build proteins on its own. We need to provide sufficient protein to the body through our diet. Some food items that are rich in protein are:
- Eggs
- Beef
- Milk
- Nuts
- soy beans etc

∙ 15y agoThe human body makes its own proteins but why humans eat meat is so that they can have the nucleic acids and protein within the cells of the meat. Animals cannot make nucleic acids, they either have to consume them or live with what they have.

We can not make the building blocks of proteins ourselves, to get these we must eat proteins and break them down into their bits in our intestines. We then use the bits to build our own proteins.

∙ 13y agoOur bodies make proteins by a process called proteining you first mix up fibers and then it is smooth sailing from there...

What does DNA decide?
DNA is the instructions to make proteins, which make up your body.
How does your body know what enzymes to make?
Enzymes are proteins and all proteins are coded for and produced by the nucleus/ribosomes.
Can you live without protein?
No. Our body uses proteins to heal itself, make new cells, and provide energy to our body.No proteins=Dead
Where the body gets proteins from?
The body synthesizes proteins and also gets them from food.
Four macromolecules that are responsible for your body system?
Proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and carbohydrates are four macromolecules of our body. They have different role for each of them to run our life. In case of proteins, they build our body, immune system, and make functional molecules.
Does your body use proteins to make lipids?
Proteins build and repair the body's tissues. Proteins are found in meats, eggs, and a variety of beans and nuts. The human body does not use proteins to make lipids.
What does DNA really contain the instructions to make?
It contains instructions for the manfucation of amino acids which make protein in your body
why do we have DNA in our body?
we have DNA to make proteins.
What is the function in ribosomes in cells?
they make proteins for the body
What does DNA decide?
DNA is the instructions to make proteins, which make up your body.
Is nucleic acids the organic molecules form the major structural materials of the body?
Organic molecules form proteins for the body.
How does your body know what enzymes to make?
Enzymes are proteins and all proteins are coded for and produced by the nucleus/ribosomes.
What cannot be used to make body proteins?
Fatty Acids
Do proteins makes up 90 percent of your body weight?
No, proteins do not make up 90 percent of your body weight. Water makes up 90 percent of your body weight.
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
Why do DNA strands match up?
To make correct proteins for the body.
What does the body use protein for?
The body uses proteins as "building blocks" - proteins are required by the body for everything from cell wall building to muscle control.
