Detailed Solution

Amino acids are produced through protein breakdown. When heated, these amino acids break down into carbon dioxide and ammonia.
All other naturally occurring $α$ amino acids—aside from glycine—are optically active due to the asymmetric $α$ -carbon atom.
Fibrous proteins are those that are created when the parallel polypeptide chains are joined by hydrogen and disulfide bonds.
