Yes. Hemoglobin is a protein that assists in oxygen transport, and amino acids are the basic building blocks of proteins.

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.


One way an amino acid differs from a lipid is that the amino acids contain?

Amino acids contain an amine group (NH2) and a carboxyl group (COOH), whereas lipids are primarily composed of hydrocarbons and do not contain these functional groups.


What kinds of molecules contain the instructions for ordering amino acids in proteins?

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.


What repeating units make up a protein fatty acids peptide acids amino acids carboxylic acids?

A protein is made up of chains of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Fatty acids are the building blocks of lipids, while peptides are made up of chains of amino acids but are shorter than proteins. Carboxylic acids are organic compounds that contain a carboxyl group.

What elements are found in certain amino acids?

Amino acids contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Some amino acids also contain sulfur.


Fatty acids and amino acids both contain?

Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Fatty acids also contain a carboxyl group (COOH) and a hydrocarbon chain, while amino acids contain an amino group (NH2) and a side chain specific to each amino acid.


What class of molecules contain amino group?

Amino acids


Do nucleic acids contain amino acid?

No, nucleic acids do not contain amino acids. Nucleic acids are polymers made up of nucleotides, which consist of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.


How many amino acids does this pentapeptide contain?

A pentapeptide contains five (penta-) amino acids.


What are protein that do not contain amino acids?

Proteins by nature are made of amino acids...so none of them.


Do amino acids contain carbon?

Yes, amino acids are organic compounds that contain carbon, along with hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms.


Why are amino acids called amino acids?

Amino acids are called amino acids because they contain an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxyl group (-COOH) in their chemical structure. These two functional groups are essential for the formation of proteins and are characteristic of all amino acids.


Are strawberries amino acids?

amino acides are the building blocks of protein, and so strawberries are NOT amino acids. However, strawberries do contain proteins (thus do contain amino acids), but the amount is very little, around 1gram of protein in about 150grams of strawberries.


Amino acids contain two common functional groups an amino group and an?

Amino acids contain two common functional groups - an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxyl group (-COOH). These groups give amino acids their distinctive properties and are involved in forming peptide bonds between amino acids to create proteins.


Side effect of amino?

They are amino acids, so they do not contain side effects.
