Proteins are the essential biomolecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues. They are large macromolecules, which play a vital role in ______ and development, therefore it is called as the building blocks of the body.

growth

Plants build up their proteins from carbon dioxide, water, and minerals in the presence of sunlight, whereas animals derive it from eating ______.

plants

Albumin and globulin are the two different types of protein present in our blood cells, and they play an important role in : Protecting the immune system.

An alkaline solution of protein is treated with a drop of aqueous copper sulfate and a bluish violet color is obtained. This confirms the presence of ______

proteins

On the treatment of nitric acid, proteins give yellow precipitate which turns to orange color on treatment with alkali. This confirms the presence of ______

proteins

Reaction of amino acids with ninhydrin leads to their decarboxylation, deamination (formation of CO2 and ammonia) and formation of aldehyde which has one carbon atom less in its structure. This confirms the presence of ______

proteins

The appearance of a yellow color solution confirms the presence of ______

proteins

The appearance of violet color solution confirms the presence of ______

proteins

An alkaline solution of protein is treated with a drop of aqueous copper sulfate and a bluish violet color is obtained. This confirms the presence of ______

proteins
