Is jelly a solid, liquid, gas? Who can ever tell? OHOHOHOHOHOHOH!!!! I can!!! Well Dhara can tell you actually but i learned it from her. In the powder form of jelly there is a protein called collagen. This is what gives us our flexibility and strength because it is also located in us. Wow!!!!! we are like jelly. what do ya know??? Anyway the collagen is bonded by triple helix hydrogen bonds. When the jelly is heated teh bonds move freely but when it cools the chains of protein get entangled making them more liquid like and when is sets it becomes wobbly. YAY!!!
