When a dipeptide is formed from two amino acids which type of reaction takes place?
A
Denaturing of amino acids
B
Condensation reaction
C
Hydrolysis reaction
D
A reaction which is catabolism
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: The type of reaction that produces a dipeptide from two amino acids is called dehydration synthesis or a condensation reaction. The name of this reaction is a result of the production of a water molecule that happens during this type of reaction.

Detailed explanation-2: -Two amino acids can react in a condensation reaction to form a peptide bond and release water. This forms a dipeptide. Many condensation reactions can occur between amino acids to build up a peptide or protein chain. Hydrolysis is the breaking of a bond by reacting with water.
