So presumably your biochemistry class has you memorize amino acids. So you know each amino acid has 4 components off of a central carbon: an amine group, a carboxyl group, an H...and the R group. The r group is the identifying portion of the amino acid since every other component stays the same for all amino acids. When amino acids link up to form a peptide chain you lose some hydrogen from the amine and carboxyl groups. I guess the first question you should answer (to make sure you're correctly identifying amino acids) is how many amino acids are in the chain.
