What is the approximate percentage of protein in the cell content​?

a) 12% b) 10% c) 15% d) 20%

The approximate percentage of proteins is 12 %.

To Find:

The approximate percentage of protein in cell content.

Solution:

Proteins are informational macromolecules. They are chains of amino acids and come after water when it comes to the content of a cell.

We know,

In a cell,

Water = 70−90%;

Proteins = 10−15%;

Nucleic acids = 5−7%;

Carbohydrates = 3%;

Lipids = 2%;

Ions 1%.

Thus as the average protein content lies between 10 to 15 %.

So,

the approximate average = \frac{10+15}{2}

=25/2 %

=12.5 %

≈12 %

Thus the approximate percentage of proteins is 12 %.
