Answer: Peptide bond

Explanation:

Polysacharride are monomers of carbohydrates linked together by glycosidic bonds to form long chains, also proteins are polymers of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds.

Linear chains of carbohydrates are linked together by glycosidic alpha-1,4- glycosidic linkages(between the OH group of the first carbon if the 1st monomer and the OH group of the 4th carbon of the second monomer. The branched point are linked by alpha-1,6-linkages.

In proteins the alpha carboxyl group of one amino acid react with alpha amino group of another amino acid to form a peptide bond or CO-NH bridge. Proteins are made by polymerization of amino acids through peptide bonds.

How does the structure of a protein affect the functions of muscle contraction

marshall27 [118]

<span>Since muscle contraction depends on interactions between actin, myosion and some intermediate molecules, the primary protein structure of such proteins and their spatial conformation are fundamental for their functioning. For example, actin and myosin, both filamentous proteins that slide past each other or troponin/tropomyosin interactions that blocks the binding of myosin to actin.</span>
