Question

This answer does not make sense to me. Where else can hydrogen bonds occur outside of the ones between the carboxyl and amino termini?

X In the alpha helix, the hydrogen bonds: *
Are roughly parallel to the axis of the helix
O Are roughly perpendicular to the axis of the helix
Occur mainly between electronegative atoms of the R groups
Occur only between some of the amino acids of the helix
Occur only near the amino and carboxyl termini of the helix
Correct answer
Are roughly parallel to the axis of the helix
0/1
