Answer:

A. it is hydrophobic

Explanation:

you know the R-group of the new amino acid contains only hydrogen and carbon atoms. this tells us that the R-group is non polar, as both hydrogen and carbon are non polar atoms.

we can predict that the amino acid is hydrophobic. meaning it does not interact well with water.

making A the correct answer.
