Answer:
A. The free amino group and carboxylic acid group are located on different amino acids.
Explanation:
The three amino acids are common in the given two tripeptides.
the amino acids form peptide bond with each other to form peptides.
In peptide bond the amino group of one amino acid reacts with carboxylic acid group of other amino acid.
Now in His-Gly-Ala, Histidine has a free amino group and its carboxylic group forms bond with amino group of Glycine. The carboxylic group of glycine forms bond with amino group of alanine. The carboxylic group of alanine is free in this tripeptide.
While in Ala—Gly—His ,alanine has a free amino group and its carboxylic group forms bond with amino group of Glycine. The carboxylic group of glycine forms bond with amino group of histidien. The carboxylic group of histidine is free in this tripeptide.
