Question

A protein may consist of as many as _____ amino acid molecules. 500 2,000 5,000 48

Answer 1

Proteins are macromolecules that are composed of amino acids, and a single protein molecule may contain as many as 5,000 amino acid molecules. The amino acids that make up the protein molecule constitute its primary structure. The interactions between these amino acids form the protein's secondary structure. Both of these structures are important in proteins as the function of proteins is highly dependent on their shape.

Answer 2

Answer;

5,000 amino acids.

Explanations;

Amino acids are the basic building blocks of proteins; contains a carboxyl group (-COOH) and an amino group (-NH2).

Proteins are large, complex organic molecules consisting of a large number of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds.

A protein may consist of as many as 5, 000amino acids.
