- ✓acidic due to $-NH_3^+$ group and basic due to $-COO^-$ group
- Cneither acidic nor basic.
- Dnone is true
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
acidic due to $-NH_3^+$ group and basic due to $-COO^-$ group
b
Amino acids exist as Zwitterions in which acidic character is due to $-\mathrm{NH}_{3}^{+}$ and basic due to $-\mathrm{COO}^{-}$ group.
