Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
1. Proteins are composed of amino - acids linked by peptide bonds. DNA is made of nucleotides and does not have peptide bonds.
2. Proteins have primary (amino - acid sequence), secondary (alpha - helices and beta - sheets), and tertiary (3 - D folding) structures. DNA has a double - helix structure and is not described in terms of these protein - specific structures.
3. Hydrogen bonds between nitrogenous bases are characteristic of DNA (A - T, G - C base - pairing), not proteins.

| Has peptide bonds | Yes | No |
| Has primary, secondary, and tertiary structures | Yes | No |
