<em>Fire could be a living thing and fire couldn't be a living thing, not every thing needs oxygen to be alive but needing oxygen doesn't mean you cannot live. When something oxidizes it releases heat, so fire is just really fast oxidization so fire is not alive when fire moves it is just air currents, fire is on Earth is a gravitational field so that is why it is thicker at the bottom. So the answer is no, fire isn't a living thing</em>.

What levels of protein structure would be affected if all hydrogen bonding interactions were prevented? check all that apply?
fgiga [73]

The proteins exhibit four levels of organization:  

1. Primary structure: It refers to a sequence of amino acids join together by the peptide bonds to produce a polypeptide chain.  

2. Secondary structure: It is a localized twisting of the polypeptide chain by producing a hydrogen bond. Two types are formed, that is, the alpha helix and beta pleated sheet.  

3. Tertiary structure: It refers to the three-dimensional composition of a polypeptide chain. The folding is not regular as it is in secondary composition. It produces ionic bonds, hydrophobic interactions, disulfide bond, and hydrogen bond amongst the polypeptide chains.  

4. Quaternary structure: It comprises an amalgamation of two or more polypeptide chains that functions as a single functional unit. The bonds are identical as in tertiary composition.  

Thus, the levels of secondary, tertiary, and quaternary protein structure would get affected if all the hydrogen bonding associations were inhibited.
