Denaturation,a process in which a protein loses its native shape and function,is likely to be caused by all of the following except
A)being transported from one cell to another in a living organism.
B)pH change.
C)temperature change.
D)ionic concentration change.
E)increase in hydrogen ion concentration.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Denaturation is a process that alters the three-dimensional structure of a protein molecule, resulting in the loss of its function. This change can be caused by various factors including pH change, temperature change, ionic concentration change, and an increase in hydrogen ion concentration. However, being transported from one cell to another in a living organism is not a typical cause of denaturation. Therefore, choice A is the best answer.
