We were allowed answer 9 out of 11 of the following questions:
How many molecules of amino acids do you take with a piece of 500 grams of meat? (on average an amino acid is ~100 Daltons) I expect answers to vary since meat composition vary.
Water composition of meat is estimated to be about 65-80% meat. Some estimates have proteins make up around 1/5 to less than 1/3 of overall muscle tissue.</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>en</language><atom:link href="https://pages.htgaa.org/2026a/xavier-lewis-palmer/homework/week-04-hw-protein-design-part-i/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/></channel></rss>
