Answer : The correct option is, peptide bond.

Explanation :

  • Amino acid : Amino acid are the acid that contains two functional groups which are carboxylic group,
    -COOH and ammine group,
    -NH_2.

When the several amino acids join together with the help of peptide bond, they produce polypeptide chain or protein. The bond present between the two amino acid is a peptide bond. The peptide bond is formed between the nitrogen of one amino acid and carbon of another amino acid.

  • Covalent bond : It is formed between the two non-metal element.
  • Ionic bond : It is formed between the one metal and non-metal element.
  • Hydrogen bond : It is formed between the proton of one molecule and the electronegative atom of another molecule.
