Unit 19: Biomolecules — Important Questions & Answers

Which one of the following is the most abundant protein in the animals?
  • A. Collagen
  • B. Lectin
  • C. Insulin
  • D. Haemoglobin
Answer: A. Collagen
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the animal kingdom.
Identify the substances having glycosidic bond and peptide bond, respectively in their structure:
  • A. Glycerol, trypsin
  • B. Cellulose, lecithin
  • C. Inulin, insulin
  • D. Chitin, cholesterol
Answer: C. Inulin, insulin
Inulin is a polymer of fructose (polysaccharide) containing glycosidic bonds. Insulin is a protein (hormone) containing peptide bonds.
Sucrose on hydrolysis gives:
  • A. alpha-D-Glucose + beta-D-Glucose
  • B. alpha-D-Glucose + beta-D-Fructose
  • C. alpha-D-Fructose + beta-D-Fructose
  • D. beta-D-Glucose + alpha-D-Fructose
Answer: B. alpha-D-Glucose + beta-D-Fructose
Sucrose is a disaccharide that on hydrolysis yields one molecule of alpha-D-glucose and one molecule of beta-D-fructose.

  • B. polybutadiene
  • C. poly (Butadiene-acrylonitrile)
  • D. cis-1,4-polyisoprene
Answer: D. cis-1,4-polyisoprene
Natural rubber is chemically cis-1,4-polyisoprene.
Which of the following is a natural polymer?
  • A. poly (Butadiene-styrene)
  • B. polybutadiene
  • C. poly (Butadiene-acrylonitrile)
  • D. cis-1,4-polyisoprene
Answer: D. cis-1,4-polyisoprene
Natural rubber is cis-1,4-polyisoprene. The others are synthetic rubbers.

  • A. D-Glucose
  • B. D-Fructose
  • C. Maltose
  • D. Sucrose
Answer: B. D-Fructose
D-Fructose is a keto-hexose, exists in α/β forms, and is strongly laevorotatory.

In a protein molecule various amino acids are linked together by:
  • A. β-glycosidic bond
  • B. peptide bond
  • C. dative bond
  • D. α-glycosidic bond
Answer: B. peptide bond
Amino acids in proteins are linked together by peptide bonds, which are amide linkages formed by the condensation of the amino group of one amino acid and the carboxyl group of another.
