1. Which of the following is incorrect for glucose ?

a. It contains 4 CHOH group b. It contain 1 CH2OH group
c. It contains -CHO group d. It contains -CO- group
2. Assertion (A): Sucrose is a non reducing sugar
Reason (R): Sucrose have glycosidic linkage
a. Both A and R are correct b. Both A and R are incorrect

2x2=4
3. Define the term a) anomers b) essential amino acids
4. Name the forces that responsible for secondary and tertiary structure of
protein.
2x3=6
5. Glucose is an aldose sugar but it doesn’t reacts with Sodium
hydrogen sulphite. Give reason
6. How would you explain the amphoteric nature of amino acids?
2x4=8
7. Amino acids are building block of proteins more than 300 amino acids
have been described,but only 20 amino acids takes part in protein synthesis.
Amino acids are necessary for protein synthesis and have various functions in
in our body. It is necessary to take them in the diet because their deficiency
results in decrease formation of protein. It is concluded that amino acids play
an important role in our body all α amino acids exist as zwitter ions each of
which has specific isoelectric point. 2 or 3 or many α amino acids join
together to form di or tri or polypeptides or proteins respectivel

a) In proteins α amino acids are joined together by

b) Which α amino acid is not optically active
c) The structure of dipeptide Gly - Ala is
d) α amino acid at its isoelectric point exists as (structure)

8. Carbohydrates are poly hydroxy aldehydes or ketones and are also called
saccharides . Monosaccharides containing aldehyde group are called aldose
while those containing a keto group are called ketose . Glucose is an example
of monosaccharides.Glucose is an Aldo hexose and its open chain structure
was assigned on the basis of many reactions as evidences like presence of
carbonyl group ,presence of straight chain,presence of alcoholic group etc.
Glucose is correctly named as D + glucose . Glucose is found to exist in 2
different crystalline form which are named as α and β.
a) Glucose on oxidation with nitric acid gives a dicarboxylic acid
called saccharic acid.This results validates the fact that glucose posses
b) The penta acetate of glucose does not react with hydroxyl
amine indicating the absence of
c) Give an example for keto hexose
d) Give two saccharides that reduce Tollens reagent.

9. a) Which sugar is called invert sugar? Why is it called so?
b) Give the differences between globular and fibrous
