Question

In an ultracentrifugation experiment, two globular proteins, X and Y, sediment with S value (Svedberg units) of 1.8 and 5. 7, respectively. Which of the following statement is true ?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Molecular weight of protein X is three times that of protein Y. Molecular weight of protein X is six times that of protein Y. Molecular weight of protein X is lower than protein Y. Correct Molecular weight of proteins has no role in their rate of sedimentation.

Explanation

quantitative reasoning analysis shows ratio, percentage and series logic determine correct calculation. Consequently Molecular weight of protein X is lower than protein Y. emerges as the valid choice since it meets mathematical and logical criteria, aligning with established principles in aptitude and reasoning literature.
