Explanation / Answer

14) Alpha helix form a part of secondary structure of proteins. The amino acids that have the propensity to form alpha helix include methionine, alanine, leucine, glutamate and lysine (MALEK group). The amino acid proline cannot be found in alpha helix because it cannot form hydrogen bonds as well as it cannot rotate around it's N-C bond. So, the answer for this question is option c (N-Lys-Pro-Thr-C).
