NEET Zoology Proteins Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The tertiary structure of proteins provides a 3-dimensional view of the protein.
Reason (R): Only right-handed helices are observed in the secondary structure of proteins.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false, but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
While both the assertion and the reason are true statements, the reason does not explain why the tertiary structure provides a 3-dimensional view. The tertiary structure results from the folding of the protein chain, not the helical arrangements in the secondary structure.
