    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 ammo acids. \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}   \\  \text{Amino}\,\text{acid} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}N-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  H \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  {{R}_{1}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}}\,-CONH}}\,-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  H \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  {{R}_{2}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}}\,-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}   \\  \text{Peptide}\,\text{bond} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CONH-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  H \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  {{R}_{3}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}}\,-COOH}}\,\]
