What could you do to your models of starch and of a polypeptide chain in a protein to make them more accurate?

To make models of starch more accurate, you could show the branched structure of amylopectin and include the α(1→4) and branching α(1→6) glycosidic bonds. For a polypeptide chain in a protein, you could accurately represent the specific sequence of amino acids and the secondary structures like alpha helices and beta sheets.

Is protein a starch?
No, protein is not a starch. Starch is a type of carbohydrate found in foods like grains and potatoes, while protein is a macronutrient found in foods like meat, dairy, and legumes. Both provide energy, but they have different functions in the body.
Does pea protein have starch?
Protein is not a starch.
How amylase breakdown starch?
To test starch: To test starch you take the food sample, and add iodine solution if the colour turns black this means starch is present. To test for protein: To test for protein, you take the food sample and add Biuret A and Biuret B and shake, if the colour turns lilac this means that protein is present.
What is the size difference fat polymers and starch and protein polymers?
Fat polymers usually vary in length and size, and starch is typically coiled. The protein polymers are round and oddly shaped.
What is the macromolecules of each monomer?
The macromolecule of a monosaccharide monomer is a polysaccharide such as starch or cellulose. The macromolecule of an amino acid monomer is a polypeptide or protein. The macromolecule of a nucleotide monomer is a nucleic acid such as DNA or RNA.
Is protein a starch?
No, protein is not a starch. Starch is a type of carbohydrate found in foods like grains and potatoes, while protein is a macronutrient found in foods like meat, dairy, and legumes. Both provide energy, but they have different functions in the body.
Glucose is to a starch as a. a steroid is to a lipid b. a nucleotide is to a nucleic acid c. an amino acid is to a protein d. a polypeptide is to an amino acid?
an amino acid is to a protein. ie starch is made of a chain of glucose with side branching. aa's combine to make a protein, to simplify things
Similarity of function between starch and protein?
1.starch is a carbohydrate 2.protein is polypeptide 3. both are bio molecule4. monomer of starch is glucose5. monomer of protein is amino acid 6.starch contain glycosidic bond 7.protein contain peptide bond
Does pea protein have starch?
Protein is not a starch.
Will an enzyme that breaks down starch work on an enzyme that breaks down protein?
No, enzymes are specific in their function and typically only work on specific substrates. An enzyme that breaks down starch will not work on an enzyme that breaks down protein, as they target different types of molecules.
Is starch a carbohydrate protein or lipid?
Starch is a carbohydrate
What flower store starch?
All flowers (food) has starch and protein
Why would you predict the pepsin would not digest starch?
Because Pepsin is the active form of a protein manufactured in the stomach.
Are English pea are they a starch?
They have starch, protein, and other nutrients such as vitamins and minerals.
Does egg whites have starch?
