Which statement is false about a globular protein that performs its biological function as a single independent polypeptide chain?
A)Its tertiary structure is likely stabilized by the interactions of amino acid side chains in non-neighboring regions of the polypeptide chain.
B)It could contain α-helices that are stabilized by hydrogen bonding.
C)It likely has extensive quaternary structure to maintain its globular shape.
D)Non-covalent forces are the primary source of stability for the secondary and tertiary structure.

A globular protein that performs its biological function as a single independent polypeptide chain does not have extensive quaternary structure to maintain its globular shape. Quaternary structure refers to the assembly of multiple polypeptide chains into a larger protein complex.
