(i) Peptide Linkage: A peptide bond is an amide type of covalent chemical bond sinking two consecutive alpha-amino acids from of one alpha-amino acid and of another along a peptide chain as shown in the diagram.

(ii) Primary Structure: The sequence of amino acids describe the primary structure of the protein. 

(iii) Denaturation: Destroying the structure and activity of a protein by some actions like boiling is called Denaturation. 
An example is Boiling of eggs.
