  1. A \(2^{\circ}\) structure get destroyed
  2. B \(3^{\circ}\) structure get destroyed
  3. C \(1^{\circ}\) structure get destroyed
  4. D Bioactivity is lost
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(1^{\circ}\) structure get destroyed

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

During denaturation of proteins, their primary structure remains unaffected. But their secondary and tertiary structures are destroyed. The covalent bonds are broken and interaction between amino acid chains are also lost. As a result, the biological activity of the proteins is…
