Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Gluten is a structural structural composite family of storage proteins naturally present in cereal grains like wheat, rye, barley, and triticale. It is comprised mainly of two sub-proteins: gliadin and glutenin. It gives elasticity to dough, helping it rise and keep its shape, but can cause digestive disorders in individuals diagnosed with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
