BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Note: On the basis of shape, proteins are of three types-Primary, secondary and tertiary proteins. Amino acid sequence does not change but if the shape of the protein changes then it leads to the dysfunction of protein and in this case, it will be considered as a denatured protein.

Detailed explanation-2: -The function of a protein is determined by its shape. If the protein’s three-dimensional structure is disrupted due to an alteration in the structure of the amino acids, the protein gets denatured. Due to its denaturation, the protein fails to execute its function as intended.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: Protein structure affects its function because proteins have a specific three dimensional shape that allows them to do their job inside the cell. Just like objects in our home are shaped a specific way for their function, so are proteins.

Detailed explanation-4: -Since shape is essential for protein function, the sequence of amino acids gives rise to all of the properties a protein has.

Detailed explanation-5: -Denaturation is a process in which proteins lose their shape and, therefore, their function because of changes in pH or temperature.
