What is a complete protein?

Biology

masya89 [10]3 years ago

If you’re a big fan of quinoa, or chia seeds, you may have heard them touted as complete proteins. In a nutshell, that means they contain all of the nine essential amino acids required to build and repair protein tissues in the body. But the question is: does that matter?

The short answer is no, not really. But first, let's back up a step.

Animal-based foods like eggs, dairy, fish, and meat are complete proteins; while most plant foods are incomplete—meaning certain amino acids are missing from the protein puzzle.

Some people believe that in order to utilize plant protein efficiently, you must eat so-called "complementary proteins" together. Rice and beans are a good example of complementary proteins, because the amino acids that are missing from beans are found in rice and vice versa.

How does central retina differ from peripheral retina differ?
Musya8 [376]
When an ophthalmologist uses an ophthalmoscope to look into your eye he sees the following view of the retina

In the center of the retina is the optic nerve, a circular to oval white area measuring about 2 x 1.5 mm across. From the center of the optic nerve radiates the major blood vessels of the retina. Approximately 17 degrees (4.5-5 mm), or two and half disc diameters to the left of the disc, can be seen the slightly oval-shaped, blood vessel-free reddish spot, the fovea, which is at the center of the area known as the macula by ophthalmologists.

Which of these is true? 1. We never get to see the far side of the moon 2. The side of the moon we see is always illuminated by
iren [92.7K]

The first statement, “We never get to see the far side of the moon” is <u>true</u> among all the statements given.

Explanation:

We only see one side of the moon from Earth, which is commonly referred to as the “near” side of the moon. We are able to see this side through our naked eyes due to the sunlight reflecting of the surface of the moon.

However, this is not to say that the far side of the moon does not receive sunlight at all. It does receive, but it’s just that the far side of the moon never faces the Earth and hence we never see it.  

Having said that, the other statements are false. The near side itself goes through weeks of darkness, where it is not lit up by the Sun. The moon has its own axis upon which it rotates. And the moon orbits the Earth and one full rotation takes about 28 days.
