Question

Which of the following statements are true?
(a) Proteins are the heteropolymer of $\alpha$-amino acid.
(b) Sugar found in nucleic acid, is in the form of $\beta$-form.
(c) Nucleic acids show acidic nature.
(d) 5-methyl uracil binds with the first carbon atom of the ribose sugar.
(e) Collagen is the most abundant protein in the plant world.

• A. a, b, e
• B. a, b, d
• C. b, c, d, e
• D. a, b, c

Answer 1

The correct option is D a, b, c

Proteins are made up of up to 20 different amino acids, so proteins are heteropolymer.

Sugar found in the nucleic acids is the $\beta$-form.
The nucleic acids are slightly acidic in nature.
5-methyl uracil binds with 5${}^{th}$ carbon atom of the ribose sugar.
RuBisCo is the most abundant protein in the plant world.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D) - a, b, c.
