C

Explanation:

This process is referred to as a dehydration synthesis because a water molecule is produced for every bond. Each bond produces an - OH from the carboxyl of the preceding amino and a - H from the amino group of the next amino acid involved in the bond - the OH and H combine to form a water molecule (H2O) and a peptide bond is formed
