Quiz 15 Name___________________________ 1. Which of the following are advantages of constructing a protein of many amino acid monomers. A) A no-longer-needed protein can be broken down and a different protein constructed from the same monomers. B) An animal can eat a plant protein, break it down to amino acids and use these to construct its own proteins. C) A myriad of proteins can be constructed from the 20 amino acids by simply varying their sequence. D) A and C E) A, B and C 2. At which structural level(s) one can alter the function of a protein: A) only primary B) only secondary C) only tertiary D) only quaternary E) primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary 3. For this pair of items, choose the option that best describes their relationship. (A) The probability that amino acids with polar side chains are hydrophobic. (B) The probability that amino acids with side chains containing an -OH group are hydrophilic. A) Item (A) is greater than item (B). B) Item (A) is less than item (B). C) Item (A) is exactly or very approximately equal to item (B). D) Item (A) may stand in more than one of the above relations to item (B). 4.
