How many different R-groups are present in 3 different amino acids?

Three, one for each amino acid.


Does glycerol have a amino group?

No, glycerol does not have an amino group. Glycerol is a simple sugar alcohol with three hydroxyl (OH) groups. Amino groups contain nitrogen and are typically found in amino acids and proteins, not in compounds like glycerol.


Do glycerol and fatty acids have an amino group?

no amino acid is not a fatty acid this is because of the following reasons 1- due to the difference of functional group i.e Amino acid has two functional groups one is amino group (-NH2) and other is carboxylic group (-COOH) while in fatty acid (-RCOOH) only carboxylic group are present. 2-Amino acid is the sub-unit of protein while Fatty acid is the sub-unit of lipids(FATS).


Does glycerol have an amino group?

No. An amino group contains one nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms, and are found in amino acids. Glycerol is a molecule that when bonded to three fatty acids, forms a triglyceride molecule.


What is the ratio of amino acids in the three to one supplement?

The ratio of amino acids in the three to one supplement is 3:1.


Are BCAA and amino acids the same?

BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids) are a type of amino acid. While all BCAAs are amino acids, not all amino acids are BCAAs. BCAAs specifically refer to three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine.


What are three or more amino acids called?

Three or more amino acids are called peptides. Peptides can vary in length, with short peptides consisting of just a few amino acids, while longer peptides can be composed of dozens or even hundreds of amino acids.


What is a covalently bonded group of three amino acids called?

A covalently bonded group of three amino acids is called a tripeptide.


Which three components are common to all amino acids?

The 20 amino acids vary in structure by the R-group, otherwise all amino acids are the same in structure. All amino acids have a carboxyl group, an amino group, an R-group, and a hydrogen which are all bonded to a central carbon. It is the R-groups that make the amino acids react in different ways and alter the structure of the protein.


How many bases needed to specify three amino acids?

i think nine bases are needed for three amino acids because i think it takes three bases to make one amino acid


How are amino acids are put together by peptide bonds to form polypeptides?
