Question 4

Primary Structure

Answer 4

Polypeptide backbone plus side chain linked by peptide bonds

Question 5

Secondary Structure

Answer 5

One primary structure will bond between its own amino acids by H-bonds forming an Alpha-Helix, Beta-pleated sheets, or random coiling

Question 6

Secondary Structure- alpha helix

Answer 6

Coiling at every 4th amino acid by H-bonds

Answer 7

Protein folds back on itself

Question 8

Tertiary Sturcture

Answer 8

Along the peptide backbone amino acids will bind and loop with each other at different locations
- hydrophobic cluster
- electrostatic attraction
- disulfide bridge
- H bonds
