Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The shape of a protein is originally determined by the..
A
size of the protein molecule
B
location of the protein within the cell
C
arrangement of amino acids in the protein
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A protein’s shape is determined by its primary structure (the amino acid sequence). The amino acid sequence within a protein is determined by the encoding sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA).

Detailed explanation-2: -The shape of a protein is solely determined by the amino acid sequence in the polypeptide chain. That’s right; it is just like DNA, unique code makes a unique design. Protein folding is the result of physical properties of amino acids’ side chains and their interactions with the environment around them.

Detailed explanation-3: -The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids). The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA) encoding it.

Detailed explanation-4: -The arrangement of amino acids in a protein. Proteins can be made from 20 different kinds of amino acids, and the structure and function of each protein are determined by the kinds of amino acids used to make it and how they are arranged.

Detailed explanation-5: -The sequence of amino acids in a protein and protein function are determined by the genetic code. The basic building blocks of proteins. The sequence of amino acids in a protein and protein function are determined by the genetic code.
