Answer:
The elemental is required in very small amount. (Ans. A)
Explanation:
Trace element is also known as micro-nutrient. It is also defined as any chemical element required by living organisms in a minute or small amounts which is usually part of the vital enzyme (cells produced by catalytic protein).
Exact needs of trace elements vary among species, like commonly required plant trace elements are cooper, zinc, manganese, boron, and molybdenum. Animals commonly required iodine, manganese, and cobalt.
Absence of necessary plant trace elements required by plants in the soil causes deficiency disease, lack of animal trace elements used by animals in the soil may not harm plants, but, animals feeding on those plants develop their deficiency disease.
So, the adjective trace means that the elemental is required in a very small amount.

Answer: Amino acids share COMMON chemical groups but have UNIQUE side chains that allow for variation. The common groups are amino and CARBOXYL groups attached to an α carbon. Amino acids link together into a polypeptide via PEPTIDE bonds. Each polypeptide has a unique sequence. The repeating subunits interact with each other via hydrogen bonds to establish secondary structures. Interactions between the side chains determine the tertiary structure of the polypeptide. The combination allows for an almost infinite number of possible structures, each with a different function.
