Hormones are proteins that regulate many functions in the body, such as growth and cell differentiation. Which of the following does NOT describe a function of proteins in living organisms?

Answer Options:

Proteins store energy long term, provide lubrication, and insulate the body Proteins in the form of enzymes catalyze chemical reactions Proteins provide structures in the body, such as hair and muscles Proteins in the cell membrane help transport substances into and out of cells Proteins store energy long term, provide lubrication, and insulate the body

Explanation:

Proteins store energy long term, provide lubrication, and insulate the body  - this is false, this describes the role of fats. Proteins in the form of enzymes catalyze chemical reactions  - this is true, enzymes are an important class of proteins in the bodyProteins provide structures in the body, such as hair and muscles  - this is true, for example our hair is made of a protein called keratin Proteins in the cell membrane help transport substances into and out of cells  - this is true, proteins form important pumps and channels in the cell membrane

It is evolution, because we all have some of the same traits like eye color or shape or ears.
