Document Summary

Amino acid are mainly used as building blocks for protein synthesis. Protein: tells you what kind of amino acid it is being formed off of. Know the names of the amino acid and if they are essential or not. The ideal protein is a concept where the amino acids pattern maximizes growth. Is an ideal protein all amino acids are equally limiting. This is just (cid:858)ideal(cid:859) and in reality, aa in the diet are not in the right proportion. Represents the proper proportion of amino acids that are needed in the diet, and the aa above the line are wasted. Have nitrogen and carbon (c can be oxidized and used for energy, n cannot be) Amino acids cannot be stored, either they are used or catabolized. Allows to increase the concentration of that specific aa without altering the others. Are feed ingredients that provide one specific aa: ex. Improve the proportion of amino acids in the diet.

Charts and tables are tools we use in science to break down information analytically and present data in an organized manner. It is a beneficial strategy for learning about and organizing scientific material, which we will be using often in this class. Make sure that you are detailed, thorough, and specific in your responses. Explain yourself clearly. Do not list a word or brief phrase without explaining what it means. For example, if you list diabetes for carbohydrates, make sure you explain how carbs are associated with diabetes. Don't leave the reader to make that connection for you. Also, make sure you provide APA-style references for each of your so
