Solution

The correct option is B Ester bonds
Ester bonds are important for the formation of nucleic acids and lipids and are not seen in protein.
Proteins are the largest and most varied class of biological molecules, and they show the greatest variety of structures. They have intricate three-dimensional folding patterns that are held in place through Hydrophobic interaction, Hydrogen bonds, Electrostatic interaction, and van der Waals forces.
