<span>George Simmel was a pioneer in sociological studies due to the fact that he developed the concept of the sociological imagination, and believed that societies can be understood through an empirical scientific approach known as positivism which is still used in research today.</span>
An hypothesis is a possible explanation for a set of observations or answer to a scientific question. A supposition or proposed explanation made on the
basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further
investigation.
And practically, an hypothesis is used as the basis for further experiments, where the hypothesis is rigorously tested under varying conditions. The hypothesis that is tested and modified under different conditions may become a general
theory
.The hypothesis that has the least number of variables sufficient to explain the phenomenon is preferred.
The option are not given and the options are:
Proteins are denatured by breaking covalent bonds.
Linear molecules like DNA are inherently stable.
Individual hydrogen bonds may be weak, but DNA structure is stabilized by many thousands or millions of these bonds - far more than found in proteins.
The statement is incorrect; it actually takes far more energy to denature proteins than it does to denature DNA.
Answer:
The correct answer is- Individual hydrogen bonds may be weak, but DNA structure is stabilized by many thousands or millions of these bonds - far more than found in proteins.
Explanation:
Proteins become denatured when it looses its three-dimensional structure. Disulfide bond and hydrogen helps in stabilizing the three-dimensional structure of proteins and if these bonds break due to any factor protein lost its structure and function.
DNA is made up of a large amount of hydrogen bond because in AT base-pairing two hydrogen bonds are required and in GC base pairing three hydrogen bonds are required. Therefore it can be concluded that as more hydrogen bonds stabilizes DNA than protein its melting temperature is higher than protein.
