AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate each of the provided statements and identify which one is not correct. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Evaluate the First Statement:** - **Statement:** "Ovalbumin is a simple food reserve in the egg white." - **Analysis:** This statement is correct. Ovalbumin is indeed a storage protein found in egg white and serves as a food reserve. 2. **Evaluate the Second Statement:** - **Statement:** "Blood proteins thrombin and fibrinogen are involved in blood clotting." - **Analysis:** This statement is also correct. Thrombin is an enzyme that converts fibrinogen into fibrin, which is essential for blood clotting. 3. **Evaluate the Third Statement:** - **Statement:** "Denaturation makes the protein more active." - **Analysis:** This statement is incorrect. Denaturation involves the disruption of a protein's structure (secondary, tertiary, and quaternary), which leads to a loss of its biological activity. Therefore, denaturation does not make proteins more active; it actually deactivates them. 4. **Evaluate the Fourth Statement:** - **Statement:** "Insulin maintains sugar level in blood of human body." - **Analysis:** This statement is correct. Insulin is a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose by cells. ### Conclusion: The statement that is not correct is the third one: "Denaturation makes the protein more active." ---
