Answer 1

HEY MATE!!

The building blocks of proteins are amino acids, which are small organic molecules that consist of an alpha (central) carbon atom linked to an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and a variable component called a side chain.

HERE IS UR ANSWER

PLEASE MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST................

Answer 2

The building blocks of  protein are Amino acids.

• This is because the amino acids can be arranged in many different combinations.

• It is possible for our body to make thousands of different kinds of proteins from just the same 21 amino acids.

• The protein structure is the 3-D arrangement of atoms in an amino acid-chain molecule.

• Proteins are polymers specifically polypeptides formed from sequences of amino acids, the monomers of the polymer.

• Protein structures range in size from tens to several thousand amino acids.

• In humans, there are upto ten different proteins can be traced to a single gene.

• The four shapes of protein are primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.

• The main functions of protein are growth and maintenance, causes biochemical reactions, acts as a messenger, provides structure, maintains proper pH, balances fluids, bolsters immune health, transports and stores nutrients.

• The main characteristics of protein are amino acids, size, structure, denaturing, strength, stored energy, biological processes.
