Regarding the primary structure of a protein:
I: The sequence of amino acids i.e., the positional information in a protein is called the primary structure of a protein.
II: A protein is imagined as a line, the left end represented by the first amino acid and the right end represented by the last amino acid.
III: The first amino acid is also called as C-terminal amino acid and the last amino acid is called the N-terminal amino acid.

In a polypeptide or a protein, amino acids are linked by a peptide bond which is formed:
I: when the carboxyl (-COOH) group of one amino acid reacts with the amino (-NH2) group of the next amino acid
II: with the elimination of a water moiety (the process is called dehydration)

2. Only II
3. Both I and II
4. Neither I nor II

Consider the two statements:
Statement I: Whether it is an exothermic or spontaneous reaction or an endothermic or energy requiring reaction, the ‘S’ has to go through a much higher energy state or transition state.
Statement II: Enzymes eventually bring down this energy barrier of activation energy making the transition of ‘S’ to ‘P’ more easy.
