Answer:

c. The presence of equal quantities of L- and D- amino acids.

Explanation:

All living entities have only L-type of amino acids in their cells from the origin of the life itself. Except a few bacterial cells walls may produce D-type. The presence of equal quantities is another whole new matter.
