(a)
Interpretation: The given statement whether applies to primary, secondary, tertiary protein structure or not has to be stated.
Concept introduction: The primary protein structure is the order of linking of the amino acids in proteins.
The arrangement of the portion of protein backbone in space gives the secondary protein structure.
The three-dimensional shape of the proteins obtained as a result of the interactions between the amino acid side chains is called the tertiary protein structure.

She recently returned from a trip to sub-Saharan Africa, where she did not take malaria prophylaxis. On examination, she is febrile (39.8°C/103.6°F) and hypotensive. Laboratory studies reveal hemoglobin of 8.0 g/dL, platelet count of 50,000/μL, and evidence of hemoglobinuria. A peripheral blood smear shows ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes.
