MCQ
Compounds containing both amino and $-COOH$ groups are known as
  • A
    Diamines
  • B
    Unknown
  • Amino acids
  • D
    Enzymes

Answer

Correct option: C.
Amino acids
c
An amino acid contains both an amino group, - $NH 2$, and a carboxylic acid group,$-COOH$, in the same molecule. As with all acids the carbon chain is numbered so that the carbon in the - $COOH$ group is counted as number $1.$
