Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metalloids are the substances that show properties of both metals and non-metals.

When it is considered that silicon is a metalloid then it means it also hows properties of both metals and non-metals. Therefore, like metals silicon is able to conduct electric current.

Whereas sulfur is a non-metal and it is known that non-metals do not conduct electric current.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement silicon is a better conductor of electric current than sulfur is true.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Amino Acids Are Linked by Peptide Bonds to Form Polypeptide Chains. Proteins are linear polymers formed by linking the α-carboxyl group of one amino acid to the α-amino group of another amino acid with a peptide bond (also called an amide bond).

To form polypeptides and proteins, amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds, in which the amino or NH2 of one amino acid bonds to the carboxyl (acid) or COOH group of another amino acid.
