Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: Basically it is not used to provide energy. Protein helps to repair and build your body tissues. It is not the energy provider.
Detailed explanation-2: -Protein has many roles in your body. It helps repair and build your body’s tissues, allows metabolic reactions to take place and coordinates bodily functions. In addition to providing your body with a structural framework, proteins also maintain proper pH and fluid balance.
Detailed explanation-3: -For any substance to be genetic material, it must be able to replicate. It must be structurally and chemically stable. It must also provide scope for mutation which is a necessary condition for evolution. Proteins can not replicate, although they can cause replication in other entities (prions).
Detailed explanation-4: -No, proteins do not store genetic information or transmit to the next generation. The genetic information is stored in the form of nucleic acids i.e. deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA) or ribonucleic acids (RNA).
