Which of the following statement is false about protein:

Correct answer: D. Primary structure is due to hydrogen bonding

  • A. Peptide bond is a covalent bond
  • B. It is a polyamide
  • C. It contain different sequence of amino acids in different proteins
  • D. Primary structure is due to hydrogen bonding

Explanation

The primary structure of a protein refers to its linear sequence of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Hydrogen bonding is not directly involved in forming the primary structure of proteins, as this structure is primarily determined by the sequence of amino acids and the peptide bonds between them. Hence, the statement given in the option'd' is false making it the correct answer.

About Biological Molecules

The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
