Answer:

The correct answer is b

Explanation:

Proteins are made up of amino acids. Proteins (there exterior) are generally hydrophilic (i.e can dissolve in water) as they must be able to interact with/dissolve in the liquid component of the cell hence, the outer part of proteins are made of/oriented of hydrophilic amino acids while the hydrophobic (water fearing/inability to dissolve in water) amino acids/portions are generally oriented inwards/into the interior of the protein structure.

b. Hydrophobic portions

What are Proteins?

  1. Proteins are large, complex molecules that play many critical roles in the body. They do most of the work in cells and are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues.
  2. Proteins are made up of amino acids. Proteins (there exterior) are generally hydrophilic (i.e. can dissolve in water) as they must be able to interact with/dissolve in the liquid component of the cell.
  3. Hence, the outer part of proteins are made of hydrophilic amino acids while the hydrophobic amino acids are generally oriented inwards/into the interior of the protein structure.

Thus, the correct option is b.
