Protein Structure:

It is a three-dimensional structure. Polypeptides are folded to produce a globular shape. The structure is stabilized by intermolecular bonds between amino acids.

Primary Structure:

Is the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. It is codified by a gene. The sequence of nucleotides in a gene codify the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain.

Secondary Structure:

3-dimensional conformation. It's the formation of beta-pleated and alpha helices, established by hydrogen bonds. It's the bond formed between the carboxyl group and the amino group.

Tertiary Structure:

The polypeptide chain is folded and established by interactions between R groups. The conformation is established by intramolecular bonds and interactions...

Nucleus: The Center of an Atom

Electron Cloud: The External Area of an Atom

The electron cloud surrounds the nucleus and is longer than the nucleus. It has an equal but negative electrical charge compared to the protons. The electron cloud contains particles called electrons, and their mass is negligible compared to the protons and neutrons.
