  1. 1This molecule is... Image for question 1
    1. AA triglyceride
    2. BAn alcohol
    3. CAn amino acid
    4. DStarch
  2. 2Which of the following statements are true about proteins? Check all that apply.
    1. AThey are amino acid polymers.
    2. BThey consist of polypeptides.
    3. CPeptide bonds are formed in hydrolysis reactions.
    4. DPrimary structure is the sequence of amino acids.
  3. 3[blank_start]Amino acid[blank_end] sequence determines the [blank_start]primary[blank_end] structure of a protein. This is determined by the codons in DNA and m[blank_start]RNA[blank_end]. [blank_start]Secondary[blank_end] structure refers to one of two shapes that a polypeptide may take: beta-[blank_start]pleated sheet[blank_end] or alpha [blank_start]helix[blank_end]. This is determined by [blank_start]hydrogen[blank_end] bonding. [blank_start]Tertiary[blank_end] structure is the further folding of the polypeptide on itself. The polypeptide begins to form a more complex, unique, three-dimensional shape. Finally, [blank_start]quaternary[blank_end] structure - which does not apply to all proteins - is the interaction between several polypeptides to form a globular protein, one common example being [blank_start]haemoglobin[blank_end], responsible for carrying oxygen.

  9. 9[blank_start]Haemoglobin[blank_end] is a [blank_start]functional[blank_end], [blank_start]globular[blank_end] protein with a [blank_start]quaternary[blank_end] structure consisting of [blank_start]four[blank_end] polypeptide sub-units. It also has a [blank_start]prosthetic group[blank_end], which is essential to its purpose of carrying [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end] around the body.
