20 AMINO ACIDS

There are twenty amino acids required for human life to exist. Adults have eight essential amino acids that they cannot synthesize. The other twelve can be produced within our bodies. There are some other amino acids found in nature (and some very small amounts in us), but these twenty are the biggies to our species and labelled the standard amino acids. We'll show you the structures and tell you what type of amino acid they are.
