← ScienceWhich consequence results when collagen's hydrogen bonds cleave?
A)Altered protein secondary structure✓
B)Increased hydrophobicity of the backbone
C)Direct DNA base-pair mutations
D)Modified enzyme active site
💡 Explanation
The protein loses stabilizing secondary structures because hydrogen bonds maintain alpha helices/beta sheets through hydrogen bonding; therefore, structural integrity is jeopardized, rather than changes involving DNA or active site alterations.
