Question

multiple choice question a protein is a chain of ____ linked together by peptide bonds. ○ nucleic acids ○ fatty acids ○ amino acids

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Nucleic acids are the building blocks of DNA/RNA, not proteins.
• Fatty acids are part of lipids (like fats and oils), not proteins.
• Amino acids are linked by peptide bonds to form proteins.

Answer:

C. amino acids (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C as nucleic acids, fatty acids, amino acids respectively; if the original labels are different, adjust accordingly, but based on the options, the correct one is amino acids)
