1-heptanol
There are 7 carbon atoms (heptan-) and then there's an alcohol (-OH) at the first carbon (1-), hence: 1-heptanol.
Glycine's formula is (H2NCH2COOH) , so there are 2 carbon atoms in one molecule.
Amino acids are said to be amphoteric because they both have a basic group (amine: NH2/NH3+) and an acid group (carboxylic acid The word is used to describe a chemical compound that may behave either as an acid or a base depending on the environment. As examples, zinc oxides and hydroxides behave as acids in alkaline solutions and bases in acidic solutions. Amino acids are amphoteric organic acids that contain the amine group, -NH2 and the carboxylic acid group -COOH. Amine groups are basic ( you could say they are a modified form of the ammonia molecule) and carboxylic acid groups are, let's see, acid. As an example of the amphoteric nature of an amino acid, we can look at Glycine, which is chemically, the simplest of the amino acids. Glycine has the formula H2NCH2COOH (C2H5NO2). In this case, Glycine has the amine group -NH2 (H2N) that is basic in nature on one section of the molecule, and the carboxylate group( -COOH) that is acidic in nature on another section. Both these groups are attached to the same carbon atom. COOH/COO-)

there is only one product formed when proteins are hydrolyzed- amino acids(peptides)h2nch2cooh and h2nc2h4cooh
