Question

9.
Which part of the amino acids gives it uniqueness?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Classification. In addition to the amino and carboxyl groups, amino acids have a side chain or R group attached to the α-carbon. Each amino acid has unique characteristics arising from the size, shape, solubility, and ionization properties of its R group.

Answer 2

Answer:

The R part of the amino acid gives it uniqueness.

Explanation:

• An amino acid is made up of the amino group(-NH₂),

         carboxyl(-COOH), and the R functional group.

• Of these three groups, the amino and carboxyl groups are present in every amino acid in more or less quantity.
• But the R group is variable. Making every amino acid unique from the other one.

The R part of the amino acid gives it uniqueness.
