NO!!!

Amino acids are definitely ORGANIC molecules.

Here is one possibility of an amino acid/

H2N-CH2-CH2-COOH.

It named as an amino acid because it contains an acid functional group (COOH) and an amine functional group (NH2).

What is the chemical attraction between the acid group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid can form?

the carboxylic acid group of a amino acid will give of an OH molecule while the amino group of the other will give of an H atom to form ah H2O molecule and while the carboxylic group or the C terminal connect to the amino group of the other giving you CONH as the peptide bond.


Is phosphoric acid an amino acid?

No, phosphoric acid is not an amino acid. Amino acids are organic compounds that contain both an amine group (-NH2) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), while phosphoric acid is an inorganic acid containing phosphorus, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms.


What forms a peptide bonds?

A peptide bond is a covalent chemical bond formed between a molecule from a carboxyl group of one molecule or more molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule. This is called a dehydration synthesis reaction.


What distinguishes an organic molecule from and inorganic molecule?

Organic molecules have carbon while inorganic do not. An example of an organic molecule is that of proteins and carbohydrates. Inorganic examples are table salt and hydrochloric acid (stomach acid).


When building an amino acid sequence what molecule picks up the amino acids and brings them to the ribosome?

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is the molecule responsible for picking up amino acids and bringing them to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and has an anticodon that pairs with the complementary codon on the messenger RNA (mRNA) being translated.

Molecule that carries amino acids to the ribosomes for incorporation into a protein?

The molecule that carries amino acids to the ribosome is transfer ribonucleic acid, or tRNA. Each tRNA molecule is specific to the amino acid it carries.


Where exactly does an amino acid link to a tRNA molecule?

An amino acid links to the tRNA molecule at the binding site called the "aminoacyl site" (A-site) on the tRNA molecule. This process is catalyzed by an enzyme called aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, which ensures the accurate pairing of the correct amino acid with its corresponding tRNA molecule.

Which bond is closest to the n-terminus of the molecule?

The peptide bond closest to the N-terminus of a protein molecule is the bond between the N-terminal amino acid and the second amino acid in the sequence. This bond forms a peptide linkage between the α-amino group of the first amino acid and the α-carboxyl group of the second amino acid.
