These are some of the factors that influence the shape of a protein EXCEPT ONE:

It involves the breaking of many of the weak linkages, or bonds within a protein molecule that are responsible for the highly ordered structure of the protein in its natural state.

These are large molecules found in our bodies and food, consisting of many smaller components called amino acids.

Protein molecules deform and unravel when exposed to _________.

When a solution of a protein is boiled, the protein frequently becomes _______.

In some instances the original structure of the protein can be regenerated; the process is called ___________.

Denaturation _______ involve identical changes in protein molecules.

Because proteins’ function is dependent on their shape, denatured proteins are _______.

During cooking the applied heat causes proteins to _________.

When a protein is exposed to a different environment, such as increased temperature, it unfolds into a single strand of _________.

It can be used to disrupt hydrogen bonds and non-polar hydrophobic interactions.

It denatures proteins by disrupting the side chain intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

A ____________ merely coagulates the protein on the outside of the cell wall and prevents any alcohol from entering the cell.

Hydrogen bonding between "side chains" occurs in _______ protein structure in a variety of amino acid combinations.
