(p. 669) Fibrous proteins are composed of relatively few amino acids in a repeating pattern. Their structures are helices or

sheets, and they are found in hair, skin and muscle. Globular proteins use more amino acids in their structures, and they
have various of irregular shapes. Their functions are various: messenger molecules, enzymes (catalysts), etc.

(p. 671) Each nucleotide along a single strand of DNA has one of four possible bases, namely guanine (G), cytosine (C),

adenine (A) and thymine (T). The double helix of DNA is held in place by hydrogen bonds between pairs of bases, one
base being on each of the two strands. G always pairs with C and A always pairs with T. Thus, the base sequence on one
strand determines the base sequence on the other strand, and the strands are "complementary" to each other.
