Which of the following statements about the formation of polypeptides from amino acids is true? A bond forms between the carboxyl functional group of one amino acid and the amino functional group of the other amino acid. A bond can form between any carbon and nitrogen atom in the two amino acids being joined. The reaction occurs through the addition of a water molecule to the amino acids. Polypeptides form by condensation or hydrolysis reactions.
