Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
D

Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized in our body so we need to take them in our diet. Amino acids are soluble in water but generally insoluble in organic solvents.
Due to crystalline nature, they are high melting solids because of dipole-dipole interactions. They exist as dipolar zwitter ions in aqueous solutions.
