Assertion: Proteins are polymers of amino acids. Reason: Amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

(c) Assertion is true but Reason is false.

(d) Assertion is false but Reason is true.

4.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 2 pts

Assertion: The primary structure of a protein determines its function. Reason: The sequence of amino acids in a protein determines its three-dimensional structure, which is essential for its function.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

(c) Assertion is true but Reason is false.

(d) Assertion is false but Reason is true.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 2 pts

Assertion: Some amino acids are essential for humans. Reason: Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained from the diet.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

(c) Assertion is true but Reason is false.

(d) Assertion is false but Reason is true.

6.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 2 pts

Assertion: Amino acids can act as buffers. Reason: Amino acids have both acidic and basic groups that can donate or accept protons, helping to maintain pH.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

(c) Assertion is true but Reason is false.

(d) Assertion is false but Reason is true.

7.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 2 pts

Assertion: The isoelectric point of an amino acid is the pH at which it has no net charge. Reason: At the isoelectric point, the number of positive and negative charges on the amino acid are equal.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

(c) Assertion is true but Reason is false.

(d) Assertion is false but Reason is true.
