What functional group found in amino acids is absent from monosaccharides polysaccharides fatty acids and glycerol?
-NH2
What are the monomers for the polymers in proteins?
The monomers of proteins are called Amino Acids.
How many amino acids could be found in the human body?
There are twenty common protein amino acids in your body, of which half can be formed in the cells. The remainder need to be consumed in our diet, as our body cannot make them, yet they are still vital. There are 2 other amino acids very ocassionally used in proteins (only one in humans) meaning that are 21 different protein amino acids in humans. Some biological pathways use other types of amino acids not found in proteins. There are at least six additional ones found in humans, but it would be difficult to determine an exact number.
What element is found in amino acids but not glucose?
nitrogen
What elements are found in certain amino acids?
sulfur
What functional group found in amino acids is absent from monosaccharides polysaccharides fatty acids and glycerol?
-NH2
Is valine a carbohydrate?
No, valine is one of the building blocks of proteins which are called amino acids. There are 22 different amino acids, 20 of which are found universally in all life. The building blocks of carbohydrates are sugars (monosaccharides), not anything to do with proteins at all. Other amino acids are alanine, phenylalanine and histidine.
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.
Do carbohydrates have an amine group?
No. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Carbohydrates contain simple sugars (monosaccharides) and polymers of sugars (disaccharides and polysaccharides).
How many compounds exist in amino acids?
There are 20 naturally occurring amino acids found in living things.
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 are the monomers for the polymers in proteins?
The monomers of proteins are called Amino Acids.
What are the Elements found in proteins?
that is amino acids
