(i) Deficiency of which vitamin causes scurvy ?
(ii) What type of linkage is responsible for the formation of proteins ?
(iii) Wrtie the product formed when glucose is treated with HI.

Explanation

(i) Deficiency of vitamin C causes scurvy. Bleeding gums is a sympton of scurvy.
(ii) Peptide linkage is responsible for the formation of proteins. Protein is formed by the
combination of the amino acids that contain amino `(-NH_(2))` and carboxyl(-COOH) as
functional groups.
(iii) When glucose is treated with HI, n-Hexane if formed as the final product.
Reaction involved :
`OHC-underset(("Glucose"))((COOH)_(4))-CH_(2)OH+ HI to CH_(3)-underset(("n - Hexane"))(CH_(3)-)CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH2-CH_(2)-CH_(2)`
