General Knowledge Questions

Amino acids are a crucial, yet basic unit of protein, and they contain an amino group and a carboxylic group. They play an extensive role in gene expression processes.

Amino acids become proteins when 50 or more are bonded together in a chain. All the millions of different proteins in living things are formed by the bonding of only 20 amino acids.

Eight of these amino acids are essential and cannot be produced by the body.

They are:

• Leucine

• Isoleucine

• Lysine

• Threonine

• Methionine

• Phenylalanine

• Valine

• Tryptophan

•  Histidine is an amino acid that is categorized as semi-essential since the human body doesn't always need it to properly function

Nonessential amino acids are produced by the human body either from essential amino acids or from normal protein breakdowns. Nonessential amino acids include:

• Asparagine

• Alanine

• Arginine

• Aspartic acid

• Cysteine

• Glutamic acid

• Glutamine

• Proline

• Glycine

• Tyrosine

• Serine.

Colloids include gels, sols, and emulsions; the particles do not settle, and cannot be separated out by ordinary filtering or centrifuging like those in a suspension.

These Colloid substances consists of ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through another substance from which we cannot separate them.

Sugar water is not a colloid and it is a solution in which we can separate them.

We know that, there are 7 continents in the world. They are :

Asia, Africa, Australia, North America, South America, Europe and Antarctica.

Africa - 53 countries

Asia - 48 countries

Europe - 45 countries

Antarctica - 0 countries

Hence, the continent Africa has most number of countries with 53 countries and in second place Asia has 48 , third Europe has 45 countries.
