amino acids are made up of stars?
410782
We don't detect amino acids in stars directly, they need a much cooler environment to form and stay together.  We have found them in asteroids and comets within our own solar system, and have observed them in clouds of insterstellar gas.\n\nThe "we are all made of stardust" comment comes from the relization that all of the elements heavier than hydrogen and helium are created in the cores of stars, or in the violent deaths of some stars.  All the elements that make up you, me, this planet, everything were formed inside of stars and then blown out upon the cosmos to be reincorporated into new structures.  Kind of neat actually.

All types of Ribosomes make amino acids.  Many amino acids are called proteins. Once the proteins are made, they are traveled to the ER, endoplasmic reticulum.  Then the ER delivers the proteins to the other organelles of the cell.  I hope this answers your answer.  I also know how the ribosomes make the protein. =)

The conversion of light elements into heavy elements, hydrogen into helium and on right up to iron, by atomic fusion. This is how a star shines. When the iron stage is reached the Sun has run out of fuel and the equilibrium between thermal forces and gravity is lost and gravity wins, resulting in the collapse into a white dwarf after going Nova and spreading its heavy elements into space. That's right we are all made of star stuff! JULES

Amino acids are the basic structural building units of proteins. They form short polymer chains called peptides or polypeptides which in turn form structures called proteins. The process of such formation from an mRNA template is known as translation, which is part of protein synthesis.\nPhenylalanine is one of the standard amino acids.\nEnlarge\nPhenylalanine is one of the standard amino acids.\n\nTwenty amino acids are encoded by the standard genetic code and are called proteinogenic or standard amino acids. Combinations of these amino acids produce every single essential protein for the homeostasis of the human body. At least two others are also coded by DNA in a non-standard manner as follows:\n\n    * Selenocysteine is incorporated into some proteins at a UGA codon, which is normally a stop codon.\n    * Pyrrolysine is used by some methanogens in enzymes that they use to produce methane. It is coded for similarly to selenocysteine but with the codon UAG instead.\n\nOther amino acids contained in proteins are usually formed by post-translational modification, which is modification after translation in protein synthesis. These modifications are often essential for the function of the protein.\n\nProline is the only proteinogenic amino acid whose side group cyclizes onto the backbone: it links to the α-amino group, and thus is also the only proteinogenic amino acid containing a secondary amine at this position. Proline has sometimes been termed an imino acid, but this is not correct by current nomenclature rules.\n\nOver one hundred amino acids have been found in nature. Some of these have been detected in meteorites, especially in a type known as carbonaceous chondrites. Microorganisms and plants can produce uncommon amino acids, which can be found in peptidic antibiotics (e.g., nisin or alamethicin). Lanthionine is a sulfide-bridged alanine dimer which is found together with unsaturated amino acids in lantibiotics (antibiotic peptides of microbial origin). 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) is a small disubstituted cyclic amino acid and a key intermediate in the production of the plant hormone ethylene.\n\nIn addition to protein synthesis, amino acids have other biologically-important roles. Glycine and glutamate are neurotransmitters as well as standard amino acids in proteins. Many amino acids are used to synthesize other molecules, for example:\n\n    * tryptophan is a precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin\n    * glycine is one of the reactants in the synthesis of porphyrins such as heme.\n\nNumerous non-standard amino acids are also biologically-important: Gamma-aminobutyric acid is another neurotransmitter, carnitine is used in lipid transport within a cell, ornithine, citrulline, homocysteine, hydroxyproline, hydroxylysine, and sarcosine.\n\nSome of the 20 standard amino acids are called essential amino acids because they cannot be synthesized by the body from other compounds through chemical reactions, but instead must be taken in with food. In humans, the essential amino acids are lysine, leucine, isoleucine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, valine. Histidine and arginine are generally considered essential only in children, because of their inability to synthesise them given their undeveloped metabolisms.\n\nThe phrase "branched-chain amino acids" is sometimes used to refer to the aliphatic amino acids: leucine, isoleucine and valine.

Amino acids.  All proteins are combinations of only these twenty amino acids, which are known as the building blocks of proteins.  The listed source can give you a list of the twenty amino acids.

Well, There are 20 different amino acids that are required for normal function to form proteins. They are divided into four different groups: non-polar amino acids, polar amino acids, aromatic amino acids and positively charged amino acids, depending on their side chains

Just a clarification-DNA is composed of nucleic acids, not amino acids.  Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

Amino acid is One of the 20 building blocks of protein. The sequence of amino acids in a protein and, hence, the function of that protein are determined by the genetic code in the DNA. \n\nAmino acids are molecules that (in technical terms) contain a basic amino (NH2) group, an acidic carboxyl (COOH) group and a side chain attached to an alpha carbon atom. \n\nThe 20 amino acids are alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, and valine. \n\nMost dietitians say it is unhealthy for people but it depends on blood count and things like that you should ask you physician or doctor before you do anything

Well, both your teachers are right. :)\n\nAtoms make molecules make cells make tissues make human body.\n\nOther information that you need to know:\n\nA cell is a complex molecule, depending on the type of cell (Eukaryote or Prokaryote; human cells fall in the former category) and humans are complex organisms, therefore their, or, should I say, OUR cells consist of more complex materials than Prokaryotic cells (e.g. of Prokaryotic cells-  Bacteria) In any case, cells contain this thing called the nucleus, and the nucleus is like a 'house' for your genetic material. These genetic material- yes, your DNA, is made up stuff called amino acids, proteins and a sugar called ribose. As you know sugar contains Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen. Recognize those? Yes- those are atoms :) And your amino acids are made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, Phosphorus and Nitrogen.\n\nSo to be really technical about it, your body is made up of atoms which then make up cells. It is not wrong to say that in biology, cells make up the basic foundation of the body since Biology looks into the cellular level of the aforementioned subject, and not always at the atomic level.\n\nI hope this answered your question! :)

amino acids.\n\nHere.  These people don't know jack.\n\nAbiotic Production of Organic Molecules\nThe classic experiment demonstrating the mechanisms by which inorganic elements could combine to form the precursors of organic chemicals was the 1950 experiment by Stanley Miller. He undertook experiments designed to find out how lightning--reproduced by repeated electric discharges--might have affected the primitive earth atmosphere. He discharged an electric spark into a mixture thought to resemble the primordial composition of the atmosphere. In a water receptacle, designed to model an ancient ocean, amino acids appeared. Amino acids are widely regarded as the building blocks of life.

I guess that you know the simplified structure of amino acids: they contain a  carboxyl group, an amino group and a R group.\n\nProton of the carboxyl group tend to be transferred into amino group which leads into the formation of a "salt" and over 90% of the amino acids are in the form of this peculiar ion, having both positive (NH3+) and negative (COO-) charge. This results an ion which is not electrically charged towards its environment.\n\nReal ionisation of aa happens when OH- or H+ acts with it, resulting R-CHNH2COO- or R-CHNH3COOH+, respectively. aa's are thus amphoteric and react with hydroxyls or protons only in the -CHNH2COOH group. This causes no modifications of the R- group. \n\nIf the subject of your study are proteins, other things can happen. But observing only the chemical reactions of amino acids, no modification of R- group happens, I guess.\n\nI
