Question

For each example, identify the protein's function in the body. Note: If you answer any part of this question incorrectly, a single red X will appear indicating that one or more of the protein functions are placed incorrectly. catalytic movement (contractile) storage structural transport Actin is the major component of thin filaments in muscles. Trypsin increases the rate of the hydrolysis of peptide bonds. Collagen is a major component of skin and bones. Low-density lipoproteins (LDL's) carry lipids throughout the body. Ferritin stores iron in almost all living organisms.
