Question

denaturation affects the bonds between amino acids in a protein. would you expect denaturation to affect the function of a protein?
no, the bonds between amino acids do not control the shape or function of a protein.
yes, altering the bonds between amino acids changes the shape of a protein and alters its function.
no, to change the function of a protein, you must change the mrna codons used to produce the protein.
no, the function of a protein is encoded in ones dna and is not controlled by amino acids.
yes, altering the bonds between amino acids will lead to changes in the genes within a cell.

Explanation:

Protein function depends on its three-dimensional shape, which is maintained by bonds between amino acids (e.g., hydrogen bonds, disulfide bridges). Denaturation disrupts these bonds, changing the protein's shape (denaturation), which in turn impairs its function (since function is shape-dependent). The correct option directly links bond alteration to shape and function change.

Answer:

Yes, altering the bonds between amino acids changes the shape of a protein and alters its function.
