| 7327222882 | amino acids structure (2) | amino acids consist of a central carbon atom, an amino group, carboxyl group(acid), and an R group (side chain). The R group is a separate side chain that determines the function for the amino acids. | 18 | |
| 7327285859 | peptide bonds | Bonds between amino acids covalent bond between NH2 (amine) of one amino acid & COOH (carboxyl) of another C-N bond |  | 19 |
