Question

Variety of amino acids are formed on the basis of
1)Position of hydroxyl group
2)Position of carboxyl group
3)Position of hydrogen
4)Nature of R group​

Answer 1

Answer:

Variety of amino acids are formed based on nature of R- group.

Otherwise, every amino acid has an amino group on the left, a carboxylic acid on the right and one hydrogen attached.

If -R is -OH, we get serine.

If -R is -H, we get glycine.

If -R is -CH₃, we get alanine etc.
