Pleated sheets are a form of secondary structure found in proteins, characterized by folding of the peptide chain into a series of pleats, primarily stabilized by hydrogen bonds.

Induced Dipole Bonding

A type of weak intermolecular force that arises when the presence of a polar molecule induces a dipole in a nonpolar molecule.

Hydrogen Bonding

A type of weak chemical bond that occurs when a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom, such as oxygen or nitrogen, experiences attraction to another electronegative atom.

Hemoglobin

Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide from the tissues back to the lungs.
