Q

Protein shape

A

Allows protein to do job

17
Q

Primary structure

A

Order of amino acids

18
Q

Secondary structure

A

Alpha helix or beta sheets

19
Q

Tertiary structure

A

Positive fold to negative, hydrophobic to hydrophilic

20
Q

Quartary structure

A

Two or more different proteins become one big one

21
Q

Denaturing

A

protein unfolds permanently messing up the function

22
Q

Causes of denaturing

A

Ph(breaks bonds) heat (messes up speed)

23
Q

Acids

A

Less than 7 ph negative parts of protein attracted to h+

24
Q

Polypeptide

A

Protien

25
Q

Hydrolysis

A

Bonds are broken and water is added

26
Q

Dehydration

A

Water comes out and molecules come together new bond
