Which of the following statements about proteins is not true

Options

A. Amino acids residues join together to make a protein molecule
B. Protein are polymers with formula`(C_(6)H_(10)O_(5))_(n)`
C. Eggs are rich in protein
D. Pulses are good soruce of proteins

Explanation

To determine which statement about proteins is not true, let's analyze each statement one by one.

1. **Statement 1**: "Amino acids, residues join together to make a protein molecule."
- This statement is true. Proteins are indeed made up of amino acids that are linked together by peptide bonds to form a polypeptide chain, which then folds into a functional protein.

2. **Statement 2**: "Proteins are polymers with formula C6H10O5."
- This statement is not true. The formula C6H10O5 is actually the general formula for polysaccharides, not proteins. Proteins are made up of amino acids, and their general formula is based on the presence of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N), but they do not conform to the formula C6H10O5.

3. **Statement 3**: "X is rich in proteins and X is rich in proteins. X is a good source of protein and pulses are a good source of protein."
- This statement is true. Pulses such as lentils, beans, and peas are well-known sources of protein.

Based on the analysis, the statement that is not true is:

**Answer**: "Proteins are polymers with formula C6H10O5."
