The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will evaluate each statement separately and then determine their relationship. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement 1 **Statement 1:** "Primary structure of proteins is determined by amino acid sequence." - The primary structure of a protein refers to the linear sequence of amino acids that make up the polypeptide chain. - Each protein has a unique sequence of amino acids, which is dictated by the genetic code. - Therefore, this statement is **true**. ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement 2 **Statement 2:** "Intramolecular hydrogen bonding between carbonyl group and `-NH` group is responsible for the folding of polypeptide chain." - Intramolecular hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a more electronegative atom (like nitrogen in the `-NH` group) is attracted to another electronegative atom (like oxygen in the carbonyl group). - This type of bonding is crucial for stabilizing the secondary structure of proteins, such as alpha-helices and beta-sheets. - Therefore, this statement is also **true**. ### Step 3: Determine the Relationship Between the Statements - While both statements are true, they address different aspects of protein structure. - Statement 1 discusses the primary structure (amino acid sequence), while Statement 2 discusses the folding of the polypeptide chain, which is related to secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures. - There is no direct relationship between the two statements, as one does not imply or depend on the other. ### Conclusion Both statements are true, but they are independent of each other. ### Final Answer Both statements are true, but there is no relationship between them. ---
