2) Which of the following is TRUE about osmosis?
A. A solution of CaCl2 will have a lower water potential than a solution of NaCI with the
same concentration.
B. Isosmotic solutions can be hypotonic if the solute cannot pass through the cell
membrane freely.
C. Raising the temperature of a solution increases its water potential.

angles that are equal to their psi bond angles.
B. Disulfide bridges decrease the effective local concentration of amino acid residues
C. The amine group of a right-handed alpha-helix residue forms a hydrogen bond with
the carbonyl of the amino acid four residues earlier(later)
D. Each amino acid in a right-handed a-helix is hydrogen bonded to an amino acid
above and below it in the helix.
E. Every third amino acid residue in an a-helix is either proline or hydroxyproline. -
ANS-D

number of ways after they are translated. When polypeptide chains are translated, they
are almost uniquely folded into a single conformation. This is due to the presence of
which of the following:

B. Proteasomes.
C. Ribosomal interactions with polypeptide.
D. Ubiquitination.
E. Untranslated regions on the RNA. - ANS-A
