    Molecular weight of protein is :

    A)  > 12000      

    B)  < 6000

    C)  < 12000       

    D)  600-3000

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Proteins are linear polymers of ammo acids. Hence, these are made up of C, H, 0, N and in some cases S also. These are macromolecules of high molecular weight (several thousands to several millions).

The compound so formed is called dipeptide.
