Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A permanent change to the shape of a protein caused by the breaking of stabilizing bonds (h bonds) and interactions between R groups of their amino acids.
A
Denaturation
B
Dipeptide
C
Condensation
D
Collagen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -This process is called denaturation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Denaturation is a process in which proteins lose their shape and, therefore, their function because of changes in pH or temperature.
