    The correct answer is a. hydrogen bonds between the amino group of one peptide bond and the carboxyl group of another peptide bond.

    Explanation:

    The secondary structure of proteins are formed by α-helices and β-structures, that can be supported by hydrogen bonds between amine hydrogens and another peptide bond.
