Refer to Activity 2 in Lab 3A to answer the question below
Two amino acids are shown below in the process of forming a peptide bond (labeled). The hydroxyl (-OH circled in red) is being removed from the carboxyl group of the first amino acid. A hydrogen
atom (-H circled in red) is being removed from the amine group from the second amino acid. The removed -OH and -H will form water (H20)
Question
What chemical reaction takes place when water is removed to form a bond (as is being shown below)?
