[Sections 3.3and 3.5] Step-by-step solution Step 1 of 5 ^Amino acids are the primary constituents of proteins that majorly contain two functional groupsone is carbonyl and the other is an amino group. There are a total of 20 amino acids that arecategorized as essential and non-essential amino acids. The non-essential amino acids are theone that is synthesized by the human body and the essential is the one that is not synthesizedform the body means one have to consume outside to rid over from any deficiency regardingthese acids.
