Attached.

Didn't understand what was meant by (which key atoms belong to the same amino acid)... Carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen?

You would find this complex during translation of mRNA.

Doesn't that mean all four atoms as you mentioned?
I asked the instructor about this, but hasn't got any reply yet.

Nice to hear back from you.

I would say that it's nitrogen, carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen because those are the one's most in common.

Say, what school do you go to?
