← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a protein's ionic bonds weaken?
A)Enzyme activity changes conformationally✓
B)Lipid solubility decreases drastically
C)Thermodynamic stability remains constant
D)Hydrophobic interactions become nonexistent
💡 Explanation
Weakened ionic bonds disrupt tertiary protein structure, because protein folding depends heavily on electrostatic interactions via ionic bonding; therefore enzyme activity changes, rather than other properties being dramatically altered maintaining structural stability.
