How many compounds exist in amino acids?
There are 20 naturally occurring amino acids found in living things.
In which of the following are amino acids found?
in proteins.
What is found in amino acids?
carboxyl and amine
Where are amino acids in the cell?
Single amino acids are found in the cytoplasm of the cell. They are mainly useful in protein synthesis, although they have other uses.
What functional group are always found in amino acids?
an amino and a carboxyl group
Amino acids that are not yet part of a polypeptide are found in which part of the cell?
nucles
What polymer is formed from amino acids found in the human body?
polypeptide?
A polypeptide found in the cytoplasm of a cell contains 12 amino acids How many nucleotides would be required in the mRNA for this polypeptide to be translated?
12 Because 1 nucleotide=1 Amino Acid.
Are amino acids found in plants animals or both?
Ribosomes are found in both plants and animals.
Can hydroxyl groups be found on all amino acids?
No they can not be found on all amino acids that is a false statement
The r group found in amino acids consists of what?
The r group found in amino acids consists of additional atoms.
What proteins are found in amino acids?
Proteins, large and complex biomolecules, are made of amino acids. The amino acids react together to form longer chains called polypeptides. The so-called primary structure of a protein is determined by the specific amino acid sequence unique to every protein, whereas its secondary structure depends on how the polypeptide chain is coiled. The tertiary structure of a protein is finally how the protein looks in 3D. And if several polypeptides interact, forming an even bigger structure, then the protein is said to have a quaternary structure. There are essential and non-essential amino acids. The non-essential ones are made in the body, whereas the essential amino acids must be found in the diet.

What is the number of nucleotides found in a protein?
None! The reason is: there are no nucleotides in proteins. Nucleotides are the monomers (building blocks) of nucleic acids. The monomers of proteins are amino acids. The relationship between nucleotides and amino acids is the genetic code. In brief, the genetic code works like this: within a region of DNA that codes for a polypeptide chain (from which a protein will be made) a group of three adjacent nucleotides code for one amino acid.
What are the Elements found in proteins?
that is amino acids

in proteins.
What is found in amino acids?
carboxyl and amine
