handed screw (called α-helix) because of the
formation of hydrogen bonds between
amide groups of the same peptide chain, i.e.,
NH group in one unit is linked to carbonyl
oxygen of the third unit by hydrogen
bonding. This hydrogen bonding between
different units is responsible for holding
helix in a position.

Fructose reduces Tollen’s reagent due to:[2010]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Biomolecules - Question 24

The correct answer is Option A.

Fructose reduces Tollen's reagent due to enolisation of fructose followed by conversion to aldehyde by base.
 
Only aldehydes reduce Tollen's reagent. But fructose is a ketone.
 
In aqueous solution, fructose is enolised and then converted into aldehyde in basic medium. 
 
All aldehydes generally reduce Tollen's reagent, thus fructose also reduces Tollen's reagent.
