Concept explainers
Determine the magnification power of a lens by focusing on the lines of a ruled piece of paper. Count the spaces between the lines that fit into one magnified space, and you have the magnification power of the lens. For example, if three spaces fit into one magnified space, then the magnification power of the lens is 3. Describe how you can do the same with binoculars and a distant brick wall.
To explain how good is the above representation of protein and to explain the importance of protein in human body.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The above shown is the secondary structure of protein in which the formation takes place by the help of hydrogen bonds between the amino hydrogen and carboxyl oxygen in peptide backbone.
This structure is used to aid in multiple sequence alignment. In this the interaction between amino acids occur close to each other.
Protein plays a vital role in human body. It helps in building and repairing tissues of the body. It is also used to make many chemicals in our body. It is used to produce or make enzymes and hormones in the body. It is an important building blocks of our bones, muscles and skin etc. Our nails and hair is mostly made up of protein.
Conclusion:
The diagram shown represents the secondary structure of protein. Proteins help is building tissues, producing enzymes, muscles, skin and in th overall body growth.
