Official Solution

Correct Option: (4)

Amino acids are categorized into essential and non-essential types. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained through the diet. Non-essential amino acids can be synthesized by the human body. Given amino acids: Val, Gly, Leu, Lys, Pro, Ser. Let's classify each: Valine (Val): Essential Glycine (Gly): Non-essential Leucine (Leu): Essential Lysine (Lys): Essential Proline (Pro): Non-essential Serine (Ser): Non-essential From the list, the essential amino acids are Val, Leu, and Lys. The non-essential amino acids are Gly, Pro, and Ser. Therefore, there are 3 essential and 3 non-essential amino acids. Amino Acid Type Val Essential Gly Non-essential Leu Essential Lys Essential Pro Non-essential Ser Non-essential Thus, the number of essential and non-essential amino acids is and respectively.
