Yes, amino acids are the building blocks of all proteins. Proteins determine the unique structure of your body, like your hair, skin, and eye color, or things like how long your eyelashes will grow or how tall you will become.

Amino acids are put together using RNA, a copy of DNA. RNA carries the instructions so that your cells know which order to put the amino acids in so they can make the correct proteins.

How many amino acids are there that make up proteins?

The number of amino acids/protein differ largely and is characteristic for each protein separately. A protein is composed of amino acids, and the function of the protein depends of the type and order of the amino acids. Because amino acids can be arranged in many different combinations, it's possible for your body to make thousands of different kinds of protein from just the same 20 amino acids.The simplest protein of life, ribonuclease, contains 124 amino acids. The "average" protein, though, contains several thousand amino acids, but those several thousand comprised only about 20 different kinds of amino acids.


How many amino acids completes protein?

The term "complete protein" refers to amino acids, the building blocks of protein. A protein must contain all nine of these essential amino acids in roughly equal amounts.


Is amino acid have protein inside them?

The way you stated your question doesn't make any sense. Proteins are a combination of "amino acids". Amino acids are monomers of proteins. There are 20 amino acids that arrange themselves differently to make a single protein.
