List the sequence of structures that a single amino acid (initially in a protein molecule that you eat) goes through from the moment it passes your lips to when it ends up in a hepatocyte. Then explain what (if any) chemicals relevant to digestive physiology it is exposed to at each step and what happens to the protein and eventually protein fragments each step of the way.

1. Which of the following statements is FALSE? A. The amino acid pool is the body's total supply of amino acids in the body's proteins. B. Fats and carbohydrates are oxidized directly to produce cellular energy. C.Amino acids can be used to supply energy only after being converted to a citric acid cycle intermediate. D. Excess carbohydrate and fat can be stored as such, whereas excess amino acids are oxidized for energy or converted to fat or glycogen for storage....

\Match the following descriptions with the corresponding amino acids: This amino acid is responsible for the strength of rhino horns and wood lignin due to the strong hydrophobic interactions between them. Subtle decreases in the serum pH lead to the protonation of this amino acid, which promotes O2 release from hemoglobin. This amino acid is the nucleophile chymotrypsin uses to attack peptide bonds. This amino acid disrupts α-helices because it makes the nearby protein backbone too flexible (and prevents proper...
