- A peptide bond is formed between which organic molecules ?arrow_forwardWhat are functional groups in biological molecules? Functional groups: Hydroxyl group Carbonyl group Carboxyl group Amino group Sulfhydryl group Phosphate group Methyl grouparrow_forwardYou put albumin, the protein responsible for lipid transport through the blood, in methane, a hydrophobic solution. Would you expect albumin to still be functional? Yes the protein would still be functional because its primary structure remains intact Yes the protein would still be functional because it is used to carry lipids No the protein would not be functional because the peptide bonds would be dehydrated No the protein would not be functional because covalent bonds weaken and disrupt secondary structure No the protein would not be functional because the tertiary structure would change to maximize hydrophobic interactionsarrow_forward
