Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Carbohydrates and lipids are made of only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (CHO). Proteins are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen (CHON). Nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus (CHON P).
Detailed explanation-2: -The correct option: The carbon-nitrogen bond that connects amino acids together in a protein is referred to as the b. peptide bond. The amino acids are joined together with the help of peptide bonds, which form the protein structure in the body.
Detailed explanation-3: -What about nitrogen? We live in a dinitrogen-rich atmosphere (80%), and all classes of biomolecules (lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and proteins) contain nitrogen.
