Biology

A total of <u>20</u> amino acids compose the majority of protein in living things and nine are <u>essential</u> to human.

  • All living organisms, from bacteria to people, depend on amino acids for survival.
  • The same 20 types of amino acids are present in all living things.
  • Only 21 amino acids are required by the human body to create all the proteins required for growth and function.
  • Your body can create thousands of different types of proteins with only the same 21 amino acids because they can be ordered in a wide variety of ways.
  • The body is unable to produce essential amino acids. They must therefore originate from food.
  • Histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine are the nine essential amino acids.

Does mitosis ever stop in cells? explain your answer
BigorU [14]
Mitosis occurs after interphase (which is the phase that takes the longest) and is occurring all the time in your cells. Sometimes a cell will not go into a state of mitosis if an error is found during the interphase process (if it does, it's cancerous) . Some cells don't go through the process of mitosis, like neurons. But once a cell passes interphase without any errors, it will go into mitosis then cytokinesis. The process takes about one day and occurs when your body is repairing itself or if you're growing and developing. So yes, it happens all the time, just not in every single cell; just in most cells.
