Question

The correct sequence of \(\alpha\)-amino acid, hormone, vitamin, carbohydrates respectively is

• A. Glutamine, Insulin, Aspartic acid, Fructose
• B. Arginine, Testosterone, Glutamic acid, Maltose
• C. Aspartic acid, Insulin, Ascorbic acid, rhamnose
• D. Thiamine, Thyroxine, Vitamin A, Glucose

Hint:

Remember to categorize substances carefully: \(\alpha\)-amino acids are proteins, hormones like insulin are essential for regulation, vitamins like ascorbic acid (vitamin C) play a vital role in immune function, and sugars like rhamnose are carbohydrates.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

- Glutamine is an \(\alpha\)-amino acid, but it is not the correct first choice for the sequence. Aspartic acid is another \(\alpha\)-amino acid, and it fits well in the sequence for amino acid. - Insulin is a hormone, which is correct in position for the hormone. - Ascorbic acid is a vitamin (vitamin C), which corresponds correctly to the vitamin in the sequence. - Rhamnose is a sugar, fitting well as the carbohydrate. Thus, the correct sequence is: \[ \text{(3) } \text{Aspartic acid, Insulin, Ascorbic acid, rhamnose} \]
