Question

Which among the following is a primary metabolite?

Alkaloids, Amino acids, Antibiotics, Flavanoids​

Answer 1

amino acids are counted in primary metabolites.

Answer 2

Answer:

Because amino acids are the primary metabolites, b is the right response.

Explanation:

Primary metabolites are the initial end products created by a live organism's body for growth.

Secondary metabolites are metabolites that aid in the performance of various biological tasks that are not engaged in the growth and maintenance of cellular activity.

1. Alkaloids are secondary metabolites that were initially characterised as pharmacologically active nitrogen-based chemicals.
2. Because amino acids are the first biomolecules synthesised from inorganic components like nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, they are known as primary metabolites.
3. Antibiotics are secondary metabolites. Antibiotics are a diverse group, with some actions connected to antimicrobial activity and others unrelated.
4. Flavonoids are secondary metabolites that may be found in a variety of foods.
