Which level of protein structure is affected by DNA

Which of the statements about ''Denaturation'' given below are correct ? (1) Denaturation of proteins causes loss of secondary and tertiary structures of the protein. (2) Denaturation leads to the conversion of double strand of DNA into single strand. (3) Denaturation affects primary structure which gets distorted.

Protein found in a biological system with a unique three-dimensional structure and biological activity is called a native protein. When a protein in its native form, is subjected to a physical change like change in temperature or a chemical change like, change in pH, denaturation of protein takes place. Explain the cause.
