True
,False
False >>>
Here is a breakdown of why the statement is false:
Nonessential Amino Acids: These are vital for building proteins, enzymes,
neurotransmitters, and cellular structures. We need them every day. The body can produce
them from other molecules, unlike essential amino amino acids, which must be consumed
directly through diet.
Lipids: Lipids (fats) are crucial components of cell membranes (phospholipids), store
energy, act as insulation, and are used to produce hormones. Most types of lipids can be
synthesized by the body as needed.
Essential Nutrients: The term "essential" refers purely to a dietary requirement—we must
eat them because our body cannot make them. It has nothing to do with their functional
importance to the body.
