Answer:

The correct option is: b. the side chain

Explanation:

Amino acids are biomolecules that contain an alpha-carbon (α-C) attached to two functional groups- carboxyl group (-COOH) and amine group (-NH₂), and an organic side chain (-R).

<em>The carboxyl and amine functional groups are common in all amino acids but the </em><u><em>side chain is distinctive to each amino acid.</em></u>

<u><em>Thus the amino acids can be easily classified on the basis of the properties of this organic side chain</em></u>.

<u />

<u>Therefore, the various amino acids have different side chains.</u>
