Answer 1

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. There are 20 different amino acids that can form a protein, and nine that your body cant produce on its own. To be considered complete, a protein must contain adequate amounts of all nine essential amino acids

Because amino acids can be arranged in many different combinations, it's possible for your body to make thousands of different kinds of proteins from just the same 21 amino acids. You may see books that say there are only 20 amino acids.
