Q3 / 75 · JEE Main 2025 (7 Apr Shift 2) · Chemistry
Given below are two statements :
Statement (I) : On hydrolysis, oligo peptides give rise to fewer number of $\alpha$-amino acids while proteins give rise to a large number of $\beta$-amino acids.
Statement (II) : Natural proteins are denatured by acids which convert the water soluble form of fibrous proteins to their water insoluble form.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Statement (I) : On hydrolysis, oligo peptides give rise to fewer number of $\alpha$-amino acids while proteins give rise to a large number of $\beta$-amino acids.
Statement (II) : Natural proteins are denatured by acids which convert the water soluble form of fibrous proteins to their water insoluble form.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- ABoth statement I and statement II are correct
- BStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
- Correct answerCBoth statement I and statement II are incorrect
- DStatement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Solution
(i) Protein does not gives $\beta$-amino acid on hydrolysis
(ii) Fibrous protein are not water soluble
So both statement's are wrong
(ii) Fibrous protein are not water soluble
So both statement's are wrong
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
