Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Proteins are building blocks of the body.
The proteins are made up of amino acids. The amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds to form a protein.
Each amino acid has a carboxyl group at one end and an amine group at another end.
R group is linked with a side chain which is variable and makes a protein molecule specific.
