How the amino group of one amino acid reacts with the carboxyl group of another amino acid ?
Nucleotides
It is an organic molecule made up of three basic components- a nitrogenous base, phosphate,and pentose sugar. The nucleotides are important for metabolic reactions andthe formation of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid).
Nucleic Acids
Nucleic acids are essential biomolecules present in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and viruses. They carry the genetic information for the synthesis of proteins and cellular replication. The nucleic acids are of two types: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). The structure of all proteins and ultimately every biomolecule and cellular component is a product of information encoded in the sequence of nucleic acids. Parts of a DNA molecule containing the information needed to synthesize a protein or an RNA are genes. Nucleic acids can store and transmit genetic information from one generation to the next, fundamental to any life form.

Introduction-
Amino acids are known as the building blocks of proteins in which they contain a basic group, an acidic carboxyl group, and an organic R group. There are around 20 amino acids founds in which these constituents vary in each amino acid, where later these amino acids are characterized into essential and non-essential amino acids according to their different properties found in nature.
