Question at position 5 The nine amino acids that must be consumed are called Question Blank 1 of 1[input] amino acids.

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The prompt asks to fill in a single blank in the phrase: 'The nine amino acids that must be consumed are called Question Blank 1 of 1[input] amino acids.'

To understand what fits in the blank, recall that the human body cannot synthesize certain amino acids in adequate amounts and therefore these must be obtained from the diet. Those amino acids are known as essential amino acids.

In humans, the standard list of essential amino acids (for general dietary purposes) includes histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine. Note that histidine is often emphasized as essential, particularly for infants, and is typically included in the adult list as well depending on the source.

So, the blank should be filled with the word 'essential' to accurately describe these nine amino acids that must be consumed.

If you’re wondering why other possible words wouldn’t fit: terms like 'nonessential' or 'conditionally essential' describe amino acids that the body can usually synthesize or that are only required under certain conditions, which is not the standard characterization of the nine indispensable amino acids referenced here.

In summary, these are the essential amino acids that must be obtained through nutrition, completing the phrase as 'The nine amino acids that must be consumed are called essential amino acids.'
