Solution
The correct option is C Proteins
As the primary structure of the protein is an amino acid sequence i.e., it is a polyamide. The amide group proves the presence of nitrogen. A linear chain of amino acid residues is called a polypeptide. A protein contains at least one long polypeptide. Short polypeptides, containing less than about 20-30 residues, are rarely considered to be proteins and are commonly called peptides, or sometimes oligopeptides. The individual amino acid residues are bonded together by peptide bonds and adjacent amino acid residues.
