Proteins: Tertiary and Quaternary Structures. The tertiary structure of a protein is a description of the complex and irregular folding of the peptide chain in three dimensions. It is essentially a picture of what the shape of the entire protein actually looks like.
Making cucumber water is pretty simple: 1  Slice a cleaned, peeled (or unpeeled depending on your preference) cucumber into 1/2 inch slices. 2  Combine cucumber slices in water, and type with ice. Allow to marinate for at least an hour.
The longer the cucumbers sit in water, the better, more flavorful the water becomes. Do not use a plastic jar; it won't work. I bought a glass sun tea cooler glass jar from Walmart which has a spout on the bottom of the jar. I sliced the cucumbers, poured filtered water on top and put it in the fridge for several days. Whenever I drink a cup of cucumber water, I put a cup of filtered water back into the jar. I think the lemon, lime, or orange addition will be tasty too but I haven't tried it, yet. The biggest key to success is using a glass jar and letting it sit for days.
