Amino acids are needed to build and repair muscles and tissues. The body cannot make them so they have to be provided through nutrition. Meat, dairy, eggs, poultry and seafood provide all of them. Nuts, lentils and tofu also provide all of the amino acids.

What is the difference between amino acid and amino acid residue?
There really isn't any difference and the terms are used essentially interchangeably, though saying "residue" implies that it's part of a larger structure (and hence is missing a few atoms compared to a complete amino acid molecule).
Is ribose with the oxygen missing component of an amino acid?
Ribose and amino acid is not related. Ribose is the pentose found in RNA, which is a nucleic acid. Amino acid, on the other hand, is the basic building block of proteins.
