Answer 2

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Proteins can be defined as the large and complex molecules which are made of numerous smaller units of amino acids, each amino acid combines to one another in long chains to form a protein molecule. They provide structure to the body thus known as building blocks of the body. They helps in regulating the body process like enzyme catalysis, breaking down of food, transporting all the essential molecules throughout the body, hormone regulation, movement of muscles, message signaling and many others.

Insulating the body is the primary function of Fats not proteins.

Therefore, the correct answer is "Option B".
