Secondary structures are stabilized by which type of interaction?

Biology
1 answer:
Brrunno [24]3 years ago
8 0
This pertains to the structure of proteins. Secondary structures are stabilized by the presence of hydrogen bonds. The common types of secondary structures of proteins are the alpha helix and the beta sheets, each performing different functions. 

Primary structure of protein is the peptide molecule comprised of peptide bonds. Once these peptide grows long enough, it will either be arranged into alpha helices or beta sheets stabilized by hydrogen bonds and this is the secondary structure. Once there is protein folding involved in the secondary structure of protein, then the folded protein is called the tertiary structure (or a protein subunit). When protein subunits come together to perform a specific function, then that is the quaternary structure.

Attached is a figure concerning the protein structures.

Human and sperm whale myoglobin have very similar primary structures. Which of the following statements are correct? a. The two
Mandarinka [93]

Question is incomplete ,complete question is as follows :

Human and sperm whale myoglobin have very similar primary structures. Which of the following statements are correct?

1) The two proteins are very likely related evolutionarily.

2) The differences in the sequences in many instances represent a conservative change (such L for I).

3) The differences in the sequences in many instances represent a nonconservative change (such as D for A).

4) There is no correlation between the two proteins since they originate from very different species.

Human and sperm whale myoglobin have very similar primary structures. Which of the following statements are correct?

A) Statements 1 and 2 are correct.

B) Statements 1, 2, and 4 are correct.

C) Statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct.

D) All of the listed statements are correct.

Answer:

A) Statements 1 and 2 are correct.

Explanation:

As the Human and sperm whale myoglobin  are very likely related evolutionarily hence option a is correct.

The differences in the sequences in many instances represent a conservative change (such as L for I) hence option b is also correct.

While all the other options are not correct.

What is binomial nomenclature? <br>​
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

In taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called binominal nomenclature ("two-name naming system") or binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin grammatical forms, although they can be based on words from other languages. Such a name is called a binomial name (which may be shortened to just "binomial"), a binomen, binominal name or a scientific name; more informally it is also called a Latin name.
