Antibodies play important role against microorganisms and other pathogens to which type of proteins do they belong________?

Correct answer: A. Globular proteins

  • A. Globular proteins
  • B. Fibrous Proteins
  • C. Both a and b
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Antibodies are immunoglobulins that recognize antigens and help neutralize or remove pathogens. Their polypeptide chains fold into compact, soluble three-dimensional shapes, so they are classified as globular proteins rather than fibrous structural proteins. Students may choose b because antibodies contain disulphide bonds and have an elongated Y shape, but shape alone does not make them fibrous proteins.
