Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
Where does a chemical bond form when a dipeptide is synthesized?
a nitrogen atom in an amino group and a carbon atom in a carboxyl group
Amino acids are acids because they posses which functional group?
The contain a carboxyl (COOH) group at one end of the molecule. At physiological pH (approx. 7.4) they are ionised to COO-, proton donors are acidic. However they also contain a basic amino group (NH2) and the hydrogen lost from the carboxyl group is transferred to this nitrogen forming NH3+. These charges cancel each other out and give them an overall neutral charge at this pH.
What functional groups act as an acid?
two examples are carboxyl and hydroxyl examples are vinegar for carboxyl and phenol for hydroxyl there are many others
What two elements are connected in a peptide bond of two amino acids?
Carbon (from the carboxyl group, not the alpha carbon) and Nitrogen (from the amino group).
Does lipid contain carbon?
Both carbohydrates and lipids contain a carboxyl group. They differ in that carbohydrates are formed between a carboxyl and an aldehyde group whereas a lipid is formed between a carboxyl and a hydroxyl group. Amino acids also contain a carboxyl group, though it forms a peptide bond with an amino group.
Are hydrocarbons in the carboxyl group?
This wording of this question sounds like you may be confused. In the term "carboxyl group", group refers to a specific group of atoms (COOH), not to a group of similar types of compounds. Since hydrocarbons by definition contain only carbon and hydrogen, a hydrocarbon cannot contain a carboxyl group.
Do amino acid molecules contain a carboxyl group and an amino group?
Yes
Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
Do all amino acid molcules contain a carboxyl group and a amino group?
Yes.
Fatty acids and amino acids both contain?

What contains both a carboxyl group and an amino group?
An amino group and an R group

What two elements are connected in a peptide bond of two amino acids?
Carbon (from the carboxyl group, not the alpha carbon) and Nitrogen (from the amino group).
What is an amino acid that posses an additional carboxyl group in side chain?
The two amino acids aspartate and glutamate each contain two carboxyl groups.
