Attempt

1 of 3

Drag and drop the boxes into the correct order.

Proteins can adopt different spatial structures, usually to save room and fit more into a cell. Amino acids may react with each other, creating new chemical bonds.

Reorder the following to form a protein molecule from its primary structure to its quaternary structure.

The spiral/harmonica shape clumps tighter together to form a ball or 3D shape
Each 3D shape binds with another to form the quaternary structure
Amino acids form of a simple chain bound together
The chain forms a spiral (helix) or a harmonica (sheet)
The amino acids come closer together creating hydrogen bonds

This is your 1^st attempt! The marking algorithm gives more marks for getting the right order first time.
