Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of bond forms between amino acids during protein synthesis?
  • Step 1: Understand that proteins are made up of smaller units called amino acids.
  • Step 2: Know that during protein synthesis, amino acids are linked together to form a chain.
  • Step 3: Identify the two important parts of an amino acid: the amino group (NH2) and the carboxyl group (COOH).
  • Step 4: Recognize that a bond is formed between the amino group of one amino acid and the carboxyl group of another amino acid.
  • Step 5: Learn that this specific bond is called a peptide bond.
