A polypeptide that has fifteen amino acids is held together by fourteen peptide bonds (count the lines in diagram). One molecule of water is consumed in the breaking of a peptide bond, therefore: 1 molecule of water x number of peptide bonds or: 1 x 14 = 14 water molecules are consumed to breakdown the polypeptide.
