Question

Which atoms in the amino acids become the h2o molecule produced by their action in model?

Answer 1

Atoms in the amino acids become the h₂O molecule produced by their action in the model and come off from the central carbon and nitrogen but not from the carboxyl, R side chain, or amine.

An amino acid is a group of organic molecules that consist of a basic acidic carboxyl group (―COOH), amino group (―NH2), and an organic R group (or side chain) that is different from each amino acid. Amino acid, the term is a short form of α-amino [alpha-amino] carboxylic acid.

Whereas, the peptide bond is the chemical bond which is a chemical bond formed between two molecules when the carboxyl group of a particular molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, leading to releasing a molecule of water (H2O).

Each molecule consists of a central carbon atom referred to as the α-carbon, to which both a carboxyl group and amino are attached. The remaining two bonds of the α-carbon atom are generally occupied  by  the R group and a hydrogen (H) atom .
