So option, a. R group

3. 9 essential amino acids are: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine.

So option, c. 9

4. Due to low levelsof enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase. Tyrosine, which is derived from phenylalanine and is necessary for normal brain function, is usually supplemented.

So option,  phenylalanine hydroxylase, Tyrosine

5. RNA found in the cytoplasm

6. Cell signalling, transcription, translation

7. Protein absorption takes place in the jejunum and ileum portions of the small intestine.

So option, Jejunum
