Summary Introduction

To explain:

The general difference between animal proteins and plant proteins in terms of obtaining essential amino acids.

Concept introduction:

The amino acids are building blocks of macromolecules proteins. There are twenty amino acids required to make proteins in all organisms. These proteins participate in the metabolism of organisms.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Some foods naturally have high levels of the free amino acid. For example, parmesan cheese (1689 mg), tomato (246 mg), scallop (159 mg), corn (106 g), and shrimp (43 mg). Wheat protein (gluten) is typically comprised of 30-35% of this amino acid. People with celiac disease cannot metabolize gluten, but have no trouble with foods high in the natural amino acid or MSG. Why is this?
Help
Proteins are constructed by amino acids that are linked together. How many different amino acids contribute to the development of proteins in the body?
