Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Most protein digestion occurs in the small intestine.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Essential amino acids are those that cannot be synthesized by the body and must come from food sources. Fatty fish is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids which must not be confused with amino acids. Nonessential amino acids are important; however, they can be synthesized by the body as needed. Nitrogen is present in all amino acids, essential and nonessential.
