Question

a drastic conformational change in a protein in response to extreme heat or ph is called ____________. multiple choice contamination denaturation saturation sedimentation deconformation

Explanation:

Denaturation is the process where proteins lose their native structure (conformation) due to factors like extreme heat or pH. Contamination refers to foreign substances entering a sample. Saturation is related to being filled (like in chemical reactions or solutions). Sedimentation is particles settling out of a fluid. Deconformation is not a standard term in protein - structure changes.

Answer:

B. denaturation
