Solution

The correct option is A Proteins
Amino acids are the basic units or monomers of proteins. They can occur in two forms, namely L- and D-forms. All amino acids, except glycine, occur in both forms. In humans, most amino acids present in proteins are in L-forms. However, D-form amino acids are also found in mammals. D-amino acids are commonly found in bacteria.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Proteins.'
