Explanation:

e.g, alanine

Cause, Alanine possess hydrophobic side chain and the most appropriate answer is (d) part......

Alanine is an aliphatic amino acid, because the side-chain connected to the a-carbon atom is a methyl group (-CH3), alanine is the simplest a-amino acid after glycine. The methyl side-chain of alanine is non-reactive and is therefore hardly ever directly involved in protein function...
