Single Choice

Each polypeptide in a protein has amino acids linked with each other in a specific sequence. This sequence of amino acids is said to be:

Aprimary structure of proteins
Correct Answer
Bsecondary structure of proteins
Ctertiary structure of proteins
Dquaternary structure of proteins

Solution

The primary structure of a protein refers to the linear sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. The primary structure is held together by covalent bonds such as peptide bonds, which are made during the process of protein biosynthesis or translation.

The primary structure of proteins tells us about the sequence of amino acids in which they are linked.

Option A is correct.
