These are called amino acids. They form long peptide chains via dehydration synthesis. These bonds are called peptide bonds. amino acids have several parts, all of which revolve around a center carbon atom. The first is called an amino group. This consists of a nitrogen and two hydrogens. The next is a carboxyl group. This consists of a carbon double bonded to an oxygen and bonded to a hydroxyl group which is an oxygen bonded to a hydrogen. Then there is a hydrogen bonded to the same center carbon. Lastly there is an R group. This is a variable group that determines the type of amino acid, and therefor is function. Each amino acid ahas a different R group.

Does your body use proteins to make lipids?
Proteins build and repair the body's tissues. Proteins are found in meats, eggs, and a variety of beans and nuts. The human body does not use proteins to make lipids.
why do we have DNA in our body?
we have DNA to make proteins.
What does DNA really contain the instructions to make?
DNA contains the instructions to make proteins, which play a critical role in determining the structure and function of every cell in our body. These proteins are responsible for various functions such as building tissues, enzymes, and hormones.
What is the function in ribosomes in cells?
they make proteins for the body
What cannot be used to make body proteins?
Fatty Acids
How does your body know what enzymes to make?
Enzymes are proteins and all proteins are coded for and produced by the nucleus/ribosomes.
Do proteins makes up 90 percent of your body weight?
No, proteins do not make up 90 percent of your body weight. Water makes up 90 percent of your body weight.
Why do DNA strands match up?
To make correct proteins for the body.
Why do you need amino acids in your diets?
amino acids make up proteins and proteins make up DNA which has all the information your body needs
Why is it important for the body to make proteins?
It is important because your body needs energy to move and do other things.
What does the body use protein for?
The body uses proteins as "building blocks" - proteins are required by the body for everything from cell wall building to muscle control.
What helps make proteins and ships them?
Golgi body aka Golgi apparatus
