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: -(A) Amino acids are connected by peptide bonds in proteins. The amino and carboxylic acid groups of any two amino acids can be covalently connected by a peptide bond, with the equivalent of the removal of a water molecule (shown in blue).
Detailed explanation-3: -Peptide bonds Each protein in your cells consists of one or more polypeptide chains. Each of these polypeptide chains is made up of amino acids, linked together in a specific order.
