Can humans be cold-blooded?
Alex777 [14]
Humans are warm blooded and can't be cold blooded because of the environment we live in. We can't sit still during the winter and soak up warmth from the sun.

Which is a difference between proteins and carbohydrates and fats?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

HERE JUST TAKE IT

Explanation:

Ok, there's carbon and hydrogen in all of them, that's the only similarity. They are known collectively as macro-nutrients.

Carbohydrates are basically, oxygen, carbon and hydrogen and they're the bodies primary source of energy. This means that they're the first source of energy used which is why if you eat foods high in simple sugars you get a sugar rush. All carbs metabolize down to glucose, some faster than others.

Fats are called lipids. Lipids are very heterogeneous (this means that there's not much similarity between them). Some examples of lipids are steroids, seed oils, pork fat, cholesterol, etc. The main thing in common with them is that they don't mix with water. They are readily stored in fat cells in the form of tryglicerides and are used when carbs are all used up. They also yield the highest per gram amount of energy (it escapes me right now).

In a chemical sense, fats are lipids derived from animals (saturated, solid at room temperature) and oils are derived from plants and seeds (insaturated with some exceptions, and liquid at room temperature. Insaturated are healthier because they contain HDL which cleans your arteries (prevents artherosclerosis).

Proteins are made up of aminoacids, 20 make up the vast amount of human proteins. Enzimes (the most famous being digestive enzimes) are proteins, skin is covered in protein, hair is protein, cilia and flagella are protein, basically EVERYTHING is protein, after water the human body is basically protein. They're only used up as energy when everything else is used up.

When athletes eat/drink protein, it's to give them building materials in order to increase the amount of stuff inside their cells which will enable them to produce more energy.

A total of _____ amino acids compose the majority of protein in living things and nine are _____ to human
Delicious77 [7]

Most proteins in living organisms are composed of 40 amino acid residues in total, and nine of those are crucial for human health.

Which majority of amino acids make up proteins in living things?

  • Only twenty different amino acids, each with a distinct side chain, make up proteins. Different chemistries can be found in the side chains of amino acids. The majority of amino acids contain side chains that are nonpolar.
  • There are nine essential amino acids:
  1. tryptophan
  2. valine
  3. isoleucine
  4. leucine
  5. lysine
  6. methionine
  7. phenylalanine
  8. threonine
  9. methionine

What Constitutes Proteins?

  • Amino acids are the basic units of proteins. They are tiny chemical compounds with an alpha (central) carbon coupled to an amino group, a carboxylic acid group, hydrogens, and a changeable element known as a side chain.
  • A protein is made up of a lengthy chain of amino acids that are connected by peptide bonds. The biological process that links the carboxyl unit of one amino acid towards the amino group of a nearby amino acid results in the extraction of a water molecule, forming peptide bonds. The main structure of a protein is thought to be its linear amino acid sequence.
