Identify the incorrect match between the protein and its role.

  1. Keratin structural component of hair

  2. Immunoglobulins protection of body against diseases
  3. Haemoglobin transport of $O _2$ in muscles

  4. Thrombin blood clotting
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation
The pigmented proteins in the muscle fibers which impart the red color to the muscles is called myoglobin. This protein is involved in the process of oxygen storage in the muscle tissues by binding to it. In conditions such as hypoxia oxygen is released by the myoglobin. Hence it is the oxygen trasnsporter to the muscle fibers. Thus the correct answer is option C.

N, S, p etc.

  1. Protein

  2. Fat

  3. Carbohydrate

  4. Vitamin
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Proteins are large molecules of high molecular weight containing C, H, O and nitrogen (N) . The presence of N distinguishes them from carbohydrate and fat. Iron, copper, iodine, sulphur and phosphorus may also be present in a very low proportion. Proteins are found in fish, meat, egg, wheat, bean, ground-nut and pulses.

A) Keratin is the protein that is the structural material making up hair, horns, claws, hooves and the outer layer of human skin.

B) Collagen is the building block of the entire body, from the skin to the gut.
C) Glutelin is the storage protein that is found in the species of grass family commonly known as gluten.
D) Haemoglobin is a blood protein that helps in the transport of oxygen.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Glutelin'.
