Which of the following describes the tertiary structure of proteins? a- Characteristic patterns such as helices and sheets that arise when hydrogen bonds form between the amino acids of polypeptides b- The association of multiple polypeptides c- The linear sequence of amino acids making up the polypeptide d- Interactions between different parts of the polypeptide making helices and sheets fold up together into functional domains
