The original roots of dodder usually die. As a parasitic plant that cannot produce its own chlorophyll, it breaks away from its root system as the roots has no apparent root cap nor apical meristems. Hence the "root" is not performing its very function of water and nutrient uptake. It then produces haustoria, a root-shaped fungi which penetrates host plant which makes the dodder parasitic.

He went to the Galapagos Islands and studied different species of finches and plants that had adapted differently on the different islands.
Answer:
Two amino acids are joined together by losing a water molecule, or hydrolysis.
Explanation:
A peptide bond is formed by binding two or more amino acids. This is a kind of covalent bond, wherein the <u>carboxylic group</u> of one amino acid and an <u>amino group</u> of another amino acid is linked together with a <u>loss of water molecule or hydrolysis during the process</u>. A polypeptide chain is now then composed of multiple peptide bonds, from binding amino acids (also known as <u>residues</u> at this point), with a linear configuration.
A closer look into this process involves the <u>α-amino group as the beginning</u> of the polypeptide series and <u>ending with the α-carboxyl group</u>. This also serves as the primary structure of the protein.
