The first amino acid in proteins is methionine.
Proteins are made up of monomers called amino acids.
Methionine. It functions as the "start" codon (tells the translation apparatus to start translating) and as a result is usually the first amino acid. However, it is frequently removed later. Methionine is by far the most common amino acid to find at the beginning of a chain, and will almost always have been there at some stage during protein synthesis. There is no other amino acid you can confidently claim is the first amino acid in anything but a small proportion of proteins.
No, that's proteins
Amino acids ARE monomers- of Proteins: a polymer. Elements C,H,O,N and sometimes s and p make it up..
amino acids
First off, it should be asked "Are lipids or proteins in an amino acid?". And the answer is proteins, because proteins are monomers ("building blocks") of amino acids.

Proteins are polymers of amino acid molecules
An amino acid is the monomer of proteins, and a nucleic acid is genetic material.
An amino acid is the monomer, or basic building block, of proteins.

No. Lysine is an amino acid. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
The basic monomer for proteins is amino acid.
