    If all the peptide bonds of protein are broken, then the remaining part is :

    A)  amide                 

    B) oligosaccharide

    C)  polypeptide                     

    D)  amino acid

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Protein is the polymer of amino acids joined together by peptide bonds so, if all the peptide bonds of protein are broken, then the remaining part will be amino acids. \[{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{N-}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{ }\!\!|\!\!\text{ } \\  \text{H} \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  {{\text{R}}_{\text{1}}} \\  \text{ }\!\!|\!\!\text{ } \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\text{C}}}}\,\text{-CONH}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{ }\!\!|\!\!\text{ } \\  \text{H} \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  {{\text{R}}_{\text{2}}} \\  \text{ }\!\!|\!\!\text{ } \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\text{C}}}}\,\text{-}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{peptide} \\  \text{bond} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\text{CONH}}}\,\text{-}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{ }\!\!|\!\!\text{ } \\  \text{H} \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  {{\text{R}}_{\text{3}}} \\  \text{ }\!\!|\!\!\text{ } \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\text{C}}}}\,\text{-COOH}\]
