BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -What Are Proteins Made Of? The building blocks of proteins are amino acids, which are small organic molecules that consist of an alpha (central) carbon atom linked to an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and a variable component called a side chain (see below).

Detailed explanation-2: -The basic structure of an amino acid is a central carbon atom bonded to an amino group (NH2), a carboxyl group (COOOH), and a hydrogen atom.

Detailed explanation-3: -The amino acids are joined to form a long chain of acids by amino and carboxyl and yields water. This long chain amino acids is the primary protein. The primary proteins modify into different directions to form secondary, tertiary etc., proteins.
