Sort the following words or phrases as descriptions or examples of fibrous proteins, globular proteins, or both. Exhibit primary protein structure; intermediate filaments; myoglobin; polymers of amino acids; soluble in water; insoluble in water; function as structural proteins in the cell; some function as enzymes; structure is somewhat spherical; structure is rod-like
Polymers of amino acids can be both fibrous as well as globular protein. Hemoglobin is a globular but the collagen is the fibrous protein both being the amino acids.
Explanation:
Soluble in water: globular protein is soluble in water.
intermediate filaments: fibrous protein
Insoluble in water: fibrous protein is insoluble in water.
function as structural proteins in the cell: fibrous protein.
some function as enzymes: globular protein.
structure is somewhat spherical; globular protein.
