The correct answer is keratin. Proteins like keratin are made up of multiple peptide chains (polypeptide); these are group of amino acids joined by peptide bonds. The sequence of amino acids in a protein is the primary structure while the specific shape in which it is folded (alpha or beta) is called the secondary structure.
