<span>Aminoacids have an amine (Nh2) group, a COOH group and a side-chain, joined by a center carbon: so the center carbon attaches to the N of the amine group, to the C of the COOH group, to another H and to the side-chain, which is different for each aminoacid (and it's usually written as "R")
I hope that my answer is helpful! Let me know if you need something more :)</span>

All amino acids have a center carbon. The center carbon has four different molecules attached to it, these are: AMINO GROUP [NH2], CARBOXYL GROUP [COOH], AN R GROUP [R] AND A HYDROGEN ATOM. There are twenty different amino acids in existence, each amino acid differ from another one based on their R groups. The R group is specific and unique to each amino acid. The center carbon in amino acid structure is also called alpha carbon.

What is enters the light cycle ? Where do they come from ? How are they used / changed ?
zubka84 [21]

In the start of the light cycle, light-dependent reactions harness energy from the sun in order to create chemical bonds. These bonds are known as ATP and NADPH. These are the molecules that carry energy which are made in the stroma. The stroma is where the Calvin cycle takes place.
