vegan
a person who does not eat food from any animal source
vegetarian
a person who eats mostly or only plant-based foods with or without dairy
proteins perform a vast array of functions:
acting as enzymes and hormones, and providing for fluid and acid-base balance, transport, protection, wound healing and tissue regeneration, and energy production
nonessential amino acids
alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, proline, serine, tyrosine
A protein is said to be "complete" when:

Acidic amino acids
aspartic acid, glutamic acid neg charge hydrophilic
Which of the following foods contain complete protein? beef, milk, eggs oranges, milk, eggs, beef, chicken, broccoli eggs, beans, pork,
beef, milk, eggs

protein
quaternary protein structure
protein consisting of more than one amino acid chain
primary protein structure

Chemical digestion of protein begins in the stomach and ends in the small intestine
stomach and ends in the small intestine
denaturation of proteins
structure unfolds into a strand amino acids
Which of the following statements is not true about protein? most Americans eat well above the RDA for protein each day. high (animal) protein intakes increase the body's excretion of calcium. the primary role of protein is to provide the building material for body tissue. the primary role of protein is to provide calories.
the primary role of protein is to provide calories.
steps of building a protein
