Four H2O molecules are needed to be eliminated to form the above mentioned length of the polypeptide.
Explanation:
In order to form the mentioned polypeptide, the four water molecules are needed to be eliminated. And this removal of H2O molecule takes place from the CH2OH group. Thereby leading to the formation of C-H bond.
This chemical recation is generally termed as hydrolysis. The term is used broadly for substitution, elimination, and solvation reactions in which water is the nucleophile.
