amino acid

Answer 2

The correct answer to this question is option (b) amino acids.

When two amino acids actually undergo condensation it leads to the formation of dipeptide.

When it is further condensed we get polypeptide.

A peptide bond is thus formed between two of the molecules when the amino group of one molecule actually reacts with the carboxylic group of another molecule.
