Sequential, Comparative, and Cause-Effect Relationships 16-19.
Meaning of Words 20-23.

Main Ideas and Author’s Approach 24-27.
Success Criteria – This is not your normal ACT Reading or Science
Passage. Instead, it is a mixture of both to help you prepare (one
last time) for the ACT. The first four questions will be Readingbased. The second four questions will be Science-based.
Challenge yourself and your group, and you will succeed!
Quick Note!
• Today’s questions are based on the printed passage
you will receive shortly. After reading your passage
individually or as a group, choose the best answer
to each question. You may refer to the passages as
often as necessary.
• You have 4 Minutes to read your passage!
First, the Reading questions…
11th Grade Reading
#1. Within the passage, which of the following
structure of orders is the best explanation of
a protein’s shape?
A. It is described by 3 levels of structure.
B. It has a primary and quaternary structure.
C. It has a primary, secondary tertiary and
quaternary structure.
D. It is described by 4 levels of structure.

#2. When referring to a protein’s ability to adopt
different shapes, which of the following best
describes a protein that is nearly entirely
unfolded?
A. renatured protein
B. denatured protein
C. random denatured coil
D. random coil
11th Grade Reading
#3. According to the article, what is the protein’s
active shape determined by?
A. its biologically functional shape
B. its primary structure
C. the lowest energy structure
D. its individual process of synthesis
11th Grade Reading
#4. What is the main purpose or idea behind
this passage?
A. to introduce and offer two unique perspectives on
protein shape
B. to define, detail and offer cohesive discussions on
polypeptides
C. to explain the uniqueness of a polypeptide in
comparison to hydrogen bonding
D. to create animosity and intrigue between two
scientists
First, the Science questions…
11th Grade Science
#5. A student has 100 balls. The balls are various
colors. The student chooses 15 balls and aligns
them in a row. The spatial order in which the
balls were placed corresponds to which of the
following levels of structure in a protein?
A. Primary structure
B. Secondary structure
C. Tertiary structure
D. Quaternary structure
11th Grade Science
#6. Suppose proteins are almost completely
denatured and then allowed to renature in a way
that allows them to have their lowest-energy
shapes. Which of the following statements
about the proteins is most consistent with the
information presented in the passage?
A. If Scientist 1 is correct, all of the proteins will have
their active shapes.
B. If Scientist 1 is correct, all of the proteins will have
shapes different than their active shapes.
C. If Scientist 2 is correct, all of the proteins will have
their active shapes.
D. If Scientist 2 is correct, all of the proteins will have
shapes different than their active shapes.
11th Grade Science
#7. Scientist 2’s views differ from Scientist 1’s views
in that only Scientist 2 believes that a protein’s
active shape is partially determined by its:
A. quaternary structure.
B. amino acid sequence.
C. process of synthesis.
D. tertiary folding patterns.
11th Grade Reading
#8. Scientist 2 says that a protein may be trapped in
a moderately high-energy shape. Which of the
following findings, if true, could be used to
counter this argument?
A. Once a protein has achieved its tertiary structure, all of
the folding patterns at the local level are stable.
B. Enough energy is available in the environment to
overcome local energy barriers, driving the protein to
its lowest-energy shape.
C. During protein synthesis, the secondary structure of a
protein is determined before the tertiary structure is
formed.
D. Proteins that lose their tertiary structure or quaternary
structure also tend to lose their biological functions.
