Detailed explanation-1: -The building blocks of proteins are amino acids, which are small organic molecules that consist of an alpha (central) carbon atom linked to an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and a variable component called a side chain (see below).
Detailed explanation-2: -The amino acids are joined to form a long chain of acids by amino and carboxyl and yields water. This long chain amino acids is the primary protein. The primary proteins modify into different directions to form secondary, tertiary etc., proteins.
Detailed explanation-3: -Amino acids are molecules that combine to form proteins. Amino acids and proteins are the building blocks of life.
Detailed explanation-4: -If DNA is the blueprint, then ribosomes are the masons-they build the protein using amino acids as the ‘bricks’. To build proteins, the two ribosomal subunits, small and large, assemble together to form the complete ribosome. It has binding sites for mRNA and transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules.
