Where does your body get its amino acids from?
Amino acids are the building blocks for making proteins. Humans are able to synthesize several amino acids, but there are 8 amino acids that we cannot produce ourselves, the so-called essential amino acids. We get proteins from food and can recycle them back into seperate amino acids. Either to be used as energy source or to build up proteins again.
What is the difference between amino acids and peptides?
amino acids contain an amine and a carboxylic acid
How are amino acids relate to gluconeogenesis?
The amino acids are used as raw material in the formation of glucose the energy compound of the body
WHat molecule is the monomer used to build protein?
amino acids
What is the function of beef broth in preparing a culture medium?
beef broth is used in culture media to serve as a source of protein and amino acids.
Where does surplus amino acids broken?
The primary uses of amino acids are as building blocks for protein and peptide synthesis and as a source of nitrogen for the synthesis of other amino acids. Amino acids considered to be "surplus" will be catabolized meaning surplus amino acids are used as metabolic fuel.
How many amino acids are used in the synthesis of body protein?
They have varying numbers, as different amino acids form different polypetide chains, which form different amino acids in the way they become folded to suit their function
When amino acids are broken down they lose their amine groups?
Yes amino acids lose their amine groups when broken down. Amino acids are used as precursors to nucleic acids when broken down.

How many total amino acids are needed by a human?
There are twenty amino acids used by humans of which eight are essential amino acids the body can not synthesize and must ingest in food. Alanine is an example of an essential amino acid.

What are the two kinds of RNA?
mRNA- messenger RNA and type of RNA that is used in protein synthesis. It carries a copy of the instructions for assembling amino acids (which was taken from the original DNA).(source for mRNA) What_is_mRNAAtRNA- transport amino acids to ribosomes for incorporation into a polypeptide undergoing synthesis.(source for tRNA) transfer-rna
Why are proteins necessary ingredients of your diets?
Proteins are required for growth and repair. Proteins contain Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen and sometimes Sulphur. Proteins are very large molecules, so they cannot get directly into our blood; they must be turned into amino-acids by the digestive system. There are over 20 different amino-acids. Our bodies can turn the amino-acids back into protein. When our cells do this they have to put the amino-acids together in the correct order. There are many millions of possible combinations or sequences of amino-acids; it is our DNA which contains the information about how to make proteins. Our cells get their amino-acids from the blood. Proteins can also be used as a source of energy.
What is the subunit that proteints are made from?
the subunits that proteins are made from are called amino acids , there are about 20 common amino acids that are used in the synthesis of proteins in humans , and proteins differ in the number , types , and sequence of amino acids .
