In zwitter ionic form, amino acids show behaviour:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D amphoteric
In aqueous solution, the carboxyl group can lose proton and amino group can accept proton, giving rise to a dipolar ion known as zwitter ion. In zwitter ionic form, amino acids show amphoteric behaviour as they react both with acids and bases.
