Question

question 5
which of the following is a general function for a fibrous protein?
○ structural framework
○ protein management
○ body defense
○ transport
○ catalysis
clear selection

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Fibrous proteins, like collagen, keratin, etc., primarily serve as a structural framework in the body (e.g., forming connective tissues, hair, nails). Protein management is not a function of fibrous proteins. Body defense is done by globular proteins (e.g., antibodies). Transport (e.g., hemoglobin) and catalysis (enzymes) are functions of globular proteins, not fibrous ones.

Answer:

A. structural framework
