Assume you have a long polypeptide chain of Gly-Val dipeptides linked end to end.  Explain the likely tertiary structure of this polypeptide chain.  For example, is the chain likely to form an alpha helix, a beta sheet, or some other structure?  Is the structure likely to display lots of folding, or very little folding?  Can you make any other predictions about the tertiary structure?  Explain your reasoning in a well-developed paragraph.
