Answer 1

1,a, Peptide
Proteins are linear polymers had link alpha -carboxyl group of amino acids tot he alpha-amino group of other amino acids with a peptide bond. Peptide bonds form polypeptide chains. nucleotides are a class of natural macromolecules combine with DNA or RNA. condensation is the change of physical state of matter. catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction.
2, Dipeptide has combinations of two amino acids.
3, c, Proteins are the primary energy source for the body.
Proteins supply energy for our bodies. fat metabolism is a simple compound used by cells of the body. kidney help buffers acids in the body to maintain plasma PH.
4, Recommended a range of daily protein is 1.2 to 2.0 grams of protein/kg of body weight per day for Athletes.
