**The Ramachandran plot indicates:**

1. The preferred conformations about C1-Cα bond
2. The preferred conformations about peptide bond
3. The preferred conformations about Cα-N bond
4. The combined preference for C1-Cα and Cα-N
5. The 1857 conspiracy against the British rule in India
6. None of the above

(Note: The Ramachandran plot is a graphical representation used to visualize dihedral angles ψ against φ of amino acid residues in protein structure.)

Expert Solution
Step 1: Dihedral angles in peptides conformation

phi (Φ) and psi (ψ) angles are known as dihedral angles. They dictate the peptide conformation. phi describes the bond rotation angle between the N-Cα. psi describes the bond rotation angle between the C-Cα.
