A
B
C

4

D

Step-by-Step Solution

A peptide chain is a polymer of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. A peptide bond is an amide linkage formed between the carboxyl group (COOH-COOH) of one amino acid and the amino group (NH2-NH_2) of the adjacent amino acid, with the elimination of a water molecule . The repeating backbone of a peptide chain is represented generally as NHCH(R)CONHCH(R)CO-NH-CH(R)-CO-NH-CH(R')-CO-. Since the options are image-based and not provided in the text, the correct option cannot be visually identified, but a typical peptide chain will show this CONH-CO-NH- repeating linkage.
