Question

Proteolysis yields 3 fragments: 2 _____ & 1 _____.

A) Peptides - polypeptide
B) Amino acids - peptide
C) Polypeptides - amino acids
D) Polypeptides - protein

Answer 1

Proteolysis yields 2 polypeptides and 1 peptide as fragments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proteolysis is the process of breaking down proteins into smaller fragments. It yields 3 fragments: 2 polypeptides and 1 peptide. Polypeptides are chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, while peptides are shorter chains of amino acids.
