Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The amino acid sequence determines the shape or conformation of the resulting protein because of ____
A
hydrogen bonding
B
ionic bonding
C
covalent bonding
D
all of these answers
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The sequence of amino acids of a protein determines protein shape, since the chemical properties of each amino acid are forces that give rise to intermolecular interactions to begin to create secondary structures, such as -helices and -strands.

Detailed explanation-2: -The primary structure of a protein-its amino acid sequence-drives the folding and intramolecular bonding of the linear amino acid chain, which ultimately determines the protein’s unique three-dimensional shape.

Detailed explanation-3: -Listen to pronunciation. (uh-MEE-noh A-sid SEE-kwents) 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.
