Detailed Solution

 In solutions of different pH, the structure of amino acids change. At lower pH, the amino group (-NH2) tends to be protonated, becoming NH3+. At higher pH, the carboxyl group (-COOH) tends to be ionised, losing a proton to form COO−.
Amino acids have amino group and acidic group as substituents on the same carbon.
