Interpretation: To match the category of an organic compound for the given biological molecule.
Concept introduction:
An amino acid is a compound that consists of two
All these groups are bonded covalently to each other.
Answer to Problem 2STP
Amino acids are most closely identified with a biological molecule i.e., protein.
Explanation of Solution
Amino acids are the smaller molecules that make up a protein. The molecules of amino acids are composed of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen. There are
Every amino acid consists of two functional groups that are amino group and the
When two amino acids combine, they release a water molecule along with the formation of protein via a condensation reaction. The bond that links amino acid units together is known as a peptide bond.
Amino acids are most closely identified with a biological molecule i.e., protein.
