Options
- A(A)-(IV), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
- B(A)-(I), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(IV)
- C(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
- D(A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(III), (D)-(II)
Correct answer
A. (A)-(IV), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
Step-by-step solution
First, identify the amino acids from their given structures or features: (A) CH ₃ CH ( OH ) CH ( NH ₂) COOH is Threonine. (B) Ph - CH ₂ CH ( NH ₂) COOH is Phenylalanine. (C) 4 -HO - C ₆ H ₄- CH ₂ CH ( NH ₂) COOH is Tyrosine. (D) The amino acid containing an indole ring in its side chain is Tryptophan. Next, recall their standard one-letter IUPAC codes: Threonine = T (IV) Phenylalanine = F (II) Tyrosine = Y (III) Tryptophan = W (I) Matching these gives (A)-(IV), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(I). Answer: (A)-(IV), (B)-(I
