Answer:

Correct ans is:

Both

Explanation:

Amino acids are amphoteric compounds, as they contain both acidic (COOH) and basic (NH2) groups. They can react with both alkalies and acids to form salts. This occurs as a result of dissociation of carboxyl group to release the H+ ion, which passes from the carboxyl to the amino group.

Human body is made up of thousands of proteins all of which necessary to stay alive and healthy. Amino acids are building blocks of proteins and thus all 20 amino acids are necessary for us.

Hence, Both statement is true!
