What is the difference between peptide and peptide bond?
a protein is many amino acids bonded together, amino acids are the basic building blocks of proteins, and a peptide bond is the bond that connects amino acids together
How many amino acids does a codon contain?
One amino acid per codon!
How many essential amino acids does a complete protain contain?
Generally a protein molecule consists of around 20 essential amino acids.
How many polymers do proteins have?
Proteins, also known as polypeptides, are polymers of individual amino acids (peptides). The number of amino acids in the protein chain varies widely. There are dipeptides (2 amino acids), oligopeptides (with a small number of amino acids beyond 2), and full-scale polypeptides (which typically contain many amino acids).
How many amino acids are in DNA and Proteins?
DNA contains no amino acids, it contains nucleic acids. Proteins can contain from 2 amino acids to tens of thousands.
How many acids are their?
amino acids?? 20 amino acids
How many amino acids completes protein?
The term "complete protein" refers to amino acids, the building blocks of protein. A protein must contain all nine of these essential amino acids in roughly equal amounts.
Organisms contain thousands of different proteins composed of how many different amino acids?

How many amino acids will be in the first amino acid in every growing polypeptide?
If a polypeptide contains 9 peptide bonds, how many amino acids does it contain?
How many dispensable amino acids are there?

How many amino acids do living organisms contain?
The proteins in living things are traditionally said to be composed of 20 amino acids. However, scientist have recently discovered a 21st one, Selenocysteine.
Does urea contain protein?
The molecular formula of the urea is NH2-CO-NH2. The proteins are long chain of many amino acids. Urea is formed out of metabolism ( break down) of the amino acids.
