Option D.Amino acids have one carboxyl group and one amine group along with a side chain. On the basis of different side chains, these are divided into a variety of categories. For example; basic amino acids are the ones that have the NH2 group in their side chain. Example of these is lysine and arginine. The acidic amino acid is the ones that have a carboxyl group in the side chain, for example, aspartic acid and glutamic acid. The simple amino acids are the ones that have no functional group in the side chain for example; glycine and valine
