amino acid molecules are water soluble meaning they cannot enter the cell. Fatty acid molecules CAN enter the cell.

∙ 10y agoNo. Amino acids have a nitrogen group attached to their acid. These are building block for proteins.
Fatty acids have an acid group attached to a long chain of carbons. These carbons can be unsaturated or saturated. These are a source of much energy.

∙ 15y agoThere are 20 different amino acids. They differ from one another because they all have different side chains.

How are proteins distinguished from one another?
Different types of proteins are formed by the bonding of different types of amino acids. There are typically four types of amino acids that make up a protein.
What way do amino acids differ from one another?
They have different side chains.
What does amino acids produce?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, one of the most essential molecules for life. Amino acids can be linked to one another to form a chain called polypeptides. Long polypeptides are proteins. The process that creates these proteins starting from the amino acids is called translation
Can Many amino acids can be synthesized using one of two different codons?
Yes.
What determines how protein polypeptides fold into 3-dimensional structures?
The linear arrangement of the constituent amino acid subunits. All twenty amino acids have the same base, but all have different R groups that have different classes of bonding. Some R groups are hydrophobic, some are hydrophyllic, some are acidic, some are thiols and some ore basic. So, all different types of folding of the tertiary structure of polypeptides are possible and due to the combinatorial arrangement of the twenty amino acids hundreds of thousands of different protein foldings are possible. And in proteins form equals function.
Amino acids can be distinguished from one another by?
Amino acids all have an amino group attached to them. There are 20 different amino groups, and therefore 20 different types of amino acids.
Do amino acids differ from fatty acids?
There are 20 different amino acids. They differ from one another because they all have different side chains.
What part of the amino acids varies from one amino acids to another?
The "R" group is different in different kinds of amino acids. The "R" group can be a number of different molecules that are attached to the alpha carbon.

What way do amino acids differ from one another?
They have different side chains.
What type of bond do amino acids form?
Amino acids form peptide bonds when bonding with one another.
What do Amino acids form one another by?
bob!
What controls the order in which different kinds of amino acids follow one another during the production of a polypeptide chain?
DNA

How many monomers of proteins exist?
20
How many different R-groups are present in 3 different amino acids?
Three, one for each amino acid.
How do proteins differ from one another in the number and sequence of amino acids?
the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain differs from protein to protein -xbanditlover
