Essential amino acids refer to the eight amino acids the adult body needs, which they cannot be synthesized correctly or at all.
The essential amino acids must be obtained from food such as proteins (meats, seafood, milk, eggs, etc).

BCAAs are considered essential because, unlike non-essential amino acids, your body cannot make them. Therefore, it is essential to get them from your diet. Bottom Line: The three BCAAs are leucine, isoleucine and valine. All have a branched molecular structure and are considered essential to the human body.

Describe the function of the proteins embedded in the cell membrane
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Protein deeply embedded in the bilayer are called integral membrane proteins. Most of this integral membrane proteins span the whole bilayer and they are called Transmembrane protein.

Because many molecules and ions can not pass through the hydrophobic core of the cell membrane they need a carrier mediated transport to go in and out of the cell. Transmembrane protein serves as channels, receptors (hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitter), tissue specific antigens, ion channels, membrane based enzymes etc that moves in and out of the cell.
