Identify the process used to form the covalent peptide bonds that join amino acids into a polypeptide.

Peptide bonds are formed by hydrolysis or losing a water (H₂O)

Explanation:

Two or more amino acids are linked by forming peptide bonds, and then eventually form polypeptides. These peptide bonds are covalent in nature and require water. an amino group and a carboxyl group to form. These components then undergo hydrolysis to form long-chain amino acids.

The sequence of the amino acid chain starts with the α-amino group residue and with an α-carboxyl group as the terminal residue. This chain is also known as the primary structure of the protein molecule.

tsd is temerature dependent sex determination.

tsd: it is a type of environmental sex determination in which the temperature experienced during embryonic/ larval development (ambient temperature for development) determine the sex of the offspring.

crocodile displays the tsd where the ambient temperature of the developing egg determines the individual's sex. for example in the american alligator's eggs, incubation at 33 ºc produces mostly males, while incubation at 30 ºc produces mostly females. so if the american alligator's egg will get the ambient temperature (33 degree celcius)during embryonic development from egg, the offspring will be male and same for the female sex determination.
