The statement "Proteins of animal origin are called first class proteins" is true.
Explanation:
Proteins obtained from animal origin are called first class proteins as they contain all eight essential amino acids.
- There are First class proteins and second class proteins. First class proteins are derived from animal origins.
- Second class proteins are obtained from plant sources, plant products such as fruits, vegetables, pulses, cereals, etc.
- First class proteins are called so as they naturally contain all eight essential amino acids and these are not synthesized by the body.
- Though most of the essential amino acids are provided by the first class proteins second class proteins too provide a few essential amino acids. Hence is important to consume a balanced diet consisting of first and second class proteins as they provide all essential nutrients required by the body.
- Some of the examples of first class proteins are milk, meat, egg, etc
