Biology · PYQ NEET UG 2023
हिन्दीGiven below are two statements:\n Statement I: A protein is imagined as a line, the left end represented by first amino acid (C-terminal) and the right end represented by last amino acid (N-terminal)\n Statement II: Adult human haemoglobin, consists of 4 subunits (two subunits of \( \alpha \) type and two subunits of \( \beta \) type.)\nIn the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Correct answer · Option 4
Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
Explanation
In a protein chain, the left end is represented by the N-terminal amino acid and the right end by the C-terminal amino acid, so Statement I is false. Adult human hemoglobin consists of 4 subunits (\( 2\alpha \) and \( 2\beta \) types), so Statement II is true.
