Why don’t free amino acids have peptide bonds? What is a free amino acid exactly?

Biology
1 answer:
slega [8]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Free amino acid do not have a peptide bond , as the amino acid act as a monomer which multiplies and linked via peptide bond to generate protein chain .

A free amino acid have a carbonly group (- COOH ) and a -NH₂ group .

The formation of protein chain require at least two amino acids linked via peptide chain .

The role of peptide chain only comes in case of protein , because it acts as a linking species .

Hence , free amino acid does not have any peptide chain .

Which blood type can be transfused into a patient who has blood type A–?
Oksana_A [137]

For a person with blood type A- (A negative),  they can be transfused with either  blood type A negative  , or blood type O negative.

This is because any other blood type will immediately be rejected by their body.

A person with blood type A negative has got antibodies against any other blood type which has a rhesus positive factor as well as antibodies against  any other blood type of a different group such as B and AB, even if they are  rhesus negative.

Therefore because of the rhesus negative factor, a person with blood type A negative  can only be transfused with rhesus negative .
