question 5 (1 point)
which bonds are created when the primary structure of a protein forms?
a) glycosidic bonds
b) hydrogen bonds
c) ionic bonds
d) peptide bonds
Brief Explanations
To determine the bonds formed in the primary structure of a protein, we analyze each option:
- Option A: Glycosidic bonds link monosaccharides in carbohydrates, not proteins. Eliminate A.
- Option B: Hydrogen bonds are involved in secondary, tertiary, or quaternary protein structures (e.g., alpha - helices, beta - sheets), not primary. Eliminate B.
- Option C: Ionic bonds contribute to tertiary or quaternary protein structure (stabilizing the folded or multi - subunit structure), not primary. Eliminate C.
- Option D: The primary structure of a protein is the linear sequence of amino acids, and amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds during this formation. So D is correct.
