Identify the process used to form the covalent peptide bonds that join amino acids into a polypeptide.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Peptide bonds are formed by hydrolysis or losing a water (H₂O)

Explanation:

Two or more amino acids are linked by forming peptide bonds, and then eventually form polypeptides. These peptide bonds are covalent in nature and require water. an amino group and a carboxyl group to form. These components then undergo hydrolysis to form long-chain amino acids.

The sequence of the amino acid chain starts with the α-amino group residue and with an α-carboxyl group as the terminal residue. This chain is also known as the primary structure of the protein molecule.

Answer:

the peptide bonds are formed by a process that is called dehydration which meant forming a new bond (peptide bond) by losing water or H2O.

The answer that the expert had verified is wrong cause its not hydrolysis its dehydration.

in between hydrolysis means the opposite of dehydration which is adding water or H2O to break down the peptide bond forming two separated amino acids

EXPERTS PLEASE CHECK YOUR KNOWLEDGE! hehehe
