Choose the incorrect statement regarding the Van der Waals interactions & Hydrogen bonds

1. In Van der Waals interactions greater the area of contact the stronger the interaction.

2. In Van der Waals interactions greater the area of contact the weaker  the interaction.

3. Hydrogen bonds Relative strength is inversely proportional to the polarity More polar atoms form weak H bonds.

4. Hydrogen bonds Relative strength is directly proportional to the polarity More polar atoms form stronger H bonds.

Which of the following is incorrect 

a) antiparallel β sheets are frequently found and they are quite more stable because of more no. hydrogen bond presence and linear H bonding pattern.

b) antiparallel β sheets are frequently found and they are quite more stable because of more no. hydrogen bond presence and having distorted H bonding pattern.

c) parallel β sheets are relatively less stable and mostly found in core of protein.

Proline and glycine both disturb the symmetry of α-helix which of the following are true regarding to these two amino acids

a) proline changes the orientation of hetropolymeric α-helix hence proline can be placed only as 1st amino acid residue near to C-terminus 

b) proline changes the orientation of polymeric α-helix hence proline can be placed only as 1st amino acid residue near to N-terminus

c) glycine disrupts the heteropolymeric α-helix by changing the helicity.

d) homopolymer of proline and glycine can form stable helix.
