Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Within a protein, multiple amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds, thereby forming a long chain. Peptide bonds are formed by a biochemical reaction that extracts a water molecule as it joins the amino group of one amino acid to the carboxyl group of a neighboring amino acid.
Detailed explanation-2: -The primary structure of a protein consists of amino acid residues linked by covalent peptide bonds.
Detailed explanation-3: -Important types of bonds involved in protein structure and conformation are Peptide bonds, Ionic bonds, Disulfide bonds, Hydrogen bonds and Hydrophobic Interactions.
