Biomolecules · Class 12 · JEE Main Previous Year Question
The water soluble protein is:
- a
Fibrin
- b✓
Albumin
- c
Myosin
- d
Collagen
Albumin
Step 1: Solubility Factors — Fibrous proteins (Fibrin, Myosin, Collagen) provide structural support and are insoluble in water.
Step 2: Globular Nature — Albumin is a globular protein that exists in a more compact, spherical form.
Step 3: Result — This classification makes it highly soluble in water because the hydrophobic side chains are buried inside. Correct option is (b).
Remember: Egg white contains albumin, which becomes insoluble (denatures) upon heating.
