Paxton · Answer 1

A) Primary - 2. The location of prosthetic groups is shown.

B) Secondary - 3. Determines how the protein will fold into a unique three-dimensional structure

C) Tertiary - 4. Held together by hydrogen bonds between atoms of the peptide backbone

D) Quatenary - 1. Formed by noncovalent interactions between two or more polypeptide chains.

Explanation:

Proteins are polymers of amino acids.

Four Protein Structure Types

The four levels of protein structure are distinguished from one another by the degree of complexity in the polypeptide chain. A single protein molecule may contain one or more of the protein structure types: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structure.
