The sequence in which the $\alpha$-amino acids are linked to one another in a protein molecule is called its:

  1. primary structure

  2. secondary structure

  3. tertiary structure

  4. quaternary structure

A Correct answer
Explanation

The primary structure of a protein is defined by the linear sequence of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures refer to the folding and spatial arrangement of this chain.

Structure of t-RNA is:

  1. Linear

  2. Branched

  3. Single helix

  4. Clover leaf structure

C Correct answer
Explanation

Structure of $tRNA$ is single helix. $tRNA$ is a type of RNA molecule that helps decode $mRNA$ sequence into a protein. $tRNA$ functions at specific sites in the ribosome during translation, which is a process that synthesizes a protein from an $mRNA$ molecule.
