Solution

failed
failed

The answer is the last one: proteins.

Explanation for each option:

  • Any type of molecule: This is incorrect because peptide bonds are specific to certain types of molecules, not all molecules.
  • Carbohydrates: This is incorrect because carbohydrates are composed of sugar molecules linked by glycosidic bonds, not peptide bonds.
  • Inorganic compounds: This is incorrect because peptide bonds are found in organic compounds, specifically in proteins.
  • Lipids: This is incorrect because lipids are composed of fatty acids and glycerol linked by ester bonds, not peptide bonds.
  • Proteins: This is correct because proteins are composed of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds.

Summary: Peptide bonds are specifically found in proteins, where they link amino acids together to form polypeptide chains.
