What else can I help you with?
A monomer that is a building block of proteins?
Answer 1) Amino acids! Becuase amino acids are basically lipids, fats, and oils. Answer 2) Amino acids are the monomers of proteins. Amino acids, however, are not lipids, fats or oils. Fats and oils are made up of fatty acids and glycerol. Lipids in general include fats and oils, but also include any other lipophilic natural molecules such as steroids, terpenes, phospholipids and many other compounds.
Is creatine a compound from amino acids?
No, not really. It is an acid, and it does contain an amino group, but it is not generally considered an amino acid per se. The amino acids we generally speak of are alpha amino acids, and creatine is NOT one of those. When you ask if it is "from amino acids", then the answer would be YES. It is made in the body from several amino acids, such as methionine, glycine and arginine.
Which is not a monomer a nucleotide an amino acid or a protein?
proteins can be considered to be polymer of amino acids
Proteins are formed of building blocks called?
Amino acids held together by peptide bonds.
Do the two amino acid chains contain the same amino acids?
To determine if two amino acid chains contain the same amino acids, one must compare the sequences of the chains. If both chains include identical amino acids in the same quantities and types, they can be considered to contain the same amino acids. However, even if they contain the same amino acids, differences in sequence or arrangement can lead to different properties and functions. Thus, the presence of the same amino acids does not guarantee similarity in function or structure.
Are amino acids considered nucleic acids?
No
Fats and oils are examples of?
fats and oils are examples of components of food which are required by our body.

What Organ is considered the clearinghouse for most amino acids?
The liver is considered the clearinghouse for most amino acids. It regulates the levels of amino acids in the bloodstream by either storing, releasing, or synthesizing them based on the body's needs.
How many amino acids make up a protein?
There are nine essential amino acids. A protein is considered to be complete if it contains all nine of these amino acids.
Is creatine a compound from amino acids?
No, not really. It is an acid, and it does contain an amino group, but it is not generally considered an amino acid per se.

It is made in the body from several amino acids, such as methionine, glycine and arginine.
Are fats and oils an example of protein?
No. Proteins are amino acid based. Fats and oils are lipids. One obvious way to see that oils and fats are not proteins is to take note that amino acids, by definition have lots of nitrogen in them. Lipids don't.
How many amino acids are considered essential?
An article published in the Journal of Nutrition states,"The amino acids regarded as essential for humans arephenylalanine, valine,threonine, tryptophan,isoleucine, methionine,leucine, lysine, andhistidine."-Wikipedia- Essential Amino AcidsA: There are nine amino acids that are considered essential.Additionally, cysteine (or sulphur-containing amino acids), tyrosine (or aromatic amino acids), and arginine are required by infants and growing children.
