The correct option is A Proteins
The alpha helix (α-helix) is a common motif in the secondary structure of proteins and is a righthand-spiral conformation (i.e. helix) in which every backbone NH group donates a hydrogen bond to the backbone C=O group of the amino acid located three or four residues earlier along the protein sequence.
