Solution

Amino acids are formed as the end products after proteins digestion.

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are large molecules made up of one or more chains of amino acids. So, the breakdown of proteins will ultimately result in the same smaller units, i.e.,amino acids. There are 20 amino acids present in the human body.
