What functional group found in amino acids is absent from monosaccharides polysaccharides fatty acids and glycerol?

The amino group (-NH2) found in amino acids is absent in monosaccharides, polysaccharides, fatty acids, and glycerol. The absence of this group is attributed to the structural differences and functions of these biomolecules.


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.


In which of the following are amino acids found?

in proteins.


Can hydroxyl groups be found on all amino acids?

No, hydroxyl groups are not found on all amino acids. Hydroxyl groups are typically found on amino acids such as serine and threonine, but are not present on all amino acids.


What element is found in amino acids but not glucose?

Nitrogen is found in amino acids but not in glucose.


What substance make up protein chain?

Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids, which are organic molecules containing an amino group, a carboxyl group, and a side chain. There are 20 different types of amino acids that can be combined in various sequences to form the diverse proteins found in living organisms.


Are amino acids found in plants animals or both?

Ribosomes are found in both plants and animals.


In living substance sulfur and nitrogen are elements chemically combined in what?

In living substances, sulfur and nitrogen are commonly found chemically combined in amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Sulfur is present in amino acids such as cysteine and methionine, while nitrogen is a key component of the amine group found in all amino acids.


What food substance is found in plasma?

The main food substance found in plasma is glucose, which is the body's main source of energy. Plasma also contains amino acids, fatty acids, and other nutrients that are used by the body for various functions.


The elements carbon hydrogen oxygen sulfur and what are found in amino acids?

Nitrogen is also found in amino acids.


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 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.
