If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The Assertion is correct because proteins are polymers of $\alpha-$ amino acids linked by peptide bonds. The Reason is also correct because denaturation involves the unfolding of the protein's secondary and tertiary structures due to physical or chemical changes,while the primary structure remains intact. However,the Reason does not explain why proteins are made of $\alpha-$ amino acids. Therefore,both statements are correct,but the Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.

Type of Protein	Their Properties
$(A)$ Fibrous	$1$. Hydrogen bonding
$(B)$ Globular	$2$. Water soluble
	$3$. Spherical shape
	$4$. Disulphide linkage

Assertion : Proteins are made up of $\alpha-$ amino acids.
Reason : During denaturation,secondary and tertiary structures of proteins are destroyed.
