The -r group of alanine is -CH3 - which is a non-polar group, while the -r group of glycine is -H - which is an uncharged polar r group.

What is the difference in structure between Alanine and Glycine?
All amino acids consist of a central carbon atom bound to a caboxyl group, an amine group, a single hydrogen and one other molecule term the r group. It is this r group that varies between different amino acids. In alanine the r group is a methyl group (-CH3) and in glycine the r group is simply another hydrogen molecule.
What acid in proteins?
Carboxylic acid group (-COOH) and amine group (-NH2) are in proteins. All amino acids are having these functional group with its specific prosthetic group. For example Glycine and Alanine will be the same structure except the side chain H in case of glycine and CH3 in case of alanine.
What is example of monomer?
glucose as cellulose is the polymer of glucose
What are the monomers in proteins called how are those monomers bonded together?
The monomers in proteins are called macromolecule. Monomers are bonded together by chemicals.
What are those amino acids that are not essentials?
These are known as non-essential amino acids because they can be produced by the organism. As for which amino acids are essential and non-essential varies per organism. Many bacteria can synthesize all amino acids and therefore all are non-essential.
Does essential amino acids include glycine and alanine and serine?
No

What does a peptide bond hold together?
Two (2) amino acids --- 1) glycine and 2) alanine
What is the R-group of Alanine?
An R group is the chemical group attached to the alpha carbon in an amino acid. In proteins all amino acids have the same basic structure and vary only in their R group. There are 20 standard amino acids found in proteins, which all have different R groups. For example an amino acids with Hydrogen from its R group is glycine, and one carbon with 3 hydrogens (a methyl group) is the R group for alanine.
What names are given to monomers of proteins?
The monomers of protein are amino acids. There are 20 common amino acids. Some of the most common are Alanine, Glycine and Leucine.

How many amino acids does this DNA sequence code for TCAGCCACCTATGGA?
This sequence codes for 5 amino acids: TCA (Serine),GCC (Alanine), ACC (Threonine), TAT (Tyrosine) and GGA (Glycine)
How many human amino acids are the same as the chicken amino acids?
Amino acids are chemicals, it doesnt matter from which organism it is, they are chemically the same (for example Glycine is an amino acid, it is the same in any species).What will iffer is, the sequence of amino acids that make proteins (such as Glycine alanine valine tyrosine is a sequence may not be same like phenylalanine serine glutamine aspartate)
What is an example of an amino acid -?
- Glycine - Alanine - Isoleucine - Threonine - Tyrosine - Tryptophan - Phenylalanine - Cysteine - Methionine - Aspartic Acid - Glutamic Acid - Arginine - Histidine - Asparagine - Glutamine
Are glycine and carboxylic acid th same?
No, glycine is one of many different carboxylic acids. Carboxylic acids come in a wide variety ranging from formic acid to amino acids (which include glycine) and fatty acids.
What are two examples of amino acids?
glycine
