Marking-scheme solution
(A)
.
(a) The Carbohydrates which reduce Fehling’s solution or Tollens’ reagent are
referred to as reducing sugars.
(i)
Fibrous proteins : When the polypeptide chains run parallel and are held
together by hydrogen & disulphide bonds then fibre– like structure is
formed.
Globular proteins : This structure results when the chains of polypeptides
coil around to give a spherical shape.
(ii)
Nucleoside
-A
unit
formed
by
the
attachment of a base to sugar is
known as Nucleoside
-Nucleoside= Base +Sugar
Nucleotide
-When nucleoside is linked to
phosphoric acid, it is called
Nucleotide
-Nucleotide= Sugar + Base +
Phosphate
