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:

all essential amino acids are present and in proper proportion.

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

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
