Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Proteins are made by linking together
A
fatty acids
B
nucleotides
C
RNA
D
amino acids
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A protein molecule is made from a long chain of these amino acids, each linked to its neighbor through a covalent peptide bond (Figure 3-1). Proteins are therefore also known as polypeptides. Each type of protein has a unique sequence of amino acids, exactly the same from one molecule to the next.

Detailed explanation-2: -Explanation: Ribosomes link amino acids together to form proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -The amino acids in a peptide are connected to one another in a sequence by bonds called peptide bonds.

Detailed explanation-4: -Proteins are made up of hundreds or thousands of smaller units called amino acids, which are attached to one another in long chains. There are 20 different types of amino acids that can be combined to make a protein.
