Detailed explanation-1: -So the question here is that amino acids are joined together by the hydrolysis reaction for the growing protein. So the answer to this question is that amino acids are joined together to form a polypeptide by using the peptide bond.
Detailed explanation-2: -A peptide bond can be broken by hydrolysis (the addition of water). The hydrolysis of peptide bonds in water releases 8–16 kJ/mol (2–4 kcal/mol) of Gibbs energy. This process is extremely slow, with the half life at 25 °C of between 350 and 600 years per bond.
Detailed explanation-3: -The protein hydrolysis aims to break down the peptide bonds and to increase the free amino acid and carboxyl groups. The resulting hydrolysate is more soluble and digestable (Contreras et al., 2019). The protein content of several primary agricultural residues is presented in Table 3.5.
