Answer: Option A.

Explanation:

Starch and cellulose are polymers of glucose and are formed by monomers of glucose joined together.

Starch is formed from alpha glucose, cellulose is formed from beta glucose.

Starch can be straight or branched and are use as energy storage by plants.

Cellulose molecules are linked and are rotated at 180degrees. Cellulose is the major constituents of plants cell. Humans cannot digest cellulose.

Answer: Option A. They have both polymers of glucose

Explanation:

Starch and cellulose are both polymers of glucose. They have similar structure, Starch and cellulose are two similar polymers. They are both made from the same monomer, glucose, and have the same glucose-based repeat units. They consists of long chains of glucose molecules connected to (1-4)-glycosidic bonds. Glycosidic bonds are the standard way of attaching things to glucose. The (1-4) bit simply means that the glucose molecules in the chain are connected to each other to the 1st and 4th carbon in the glucose ring opposite each other.

The fact that choanoflagellates and collar cells of sponges resemble each other supports the inference that ________. Group of a
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

choanoflagellates and sponges are sister groups

Explanation:

The choanoflagellates are small unicellular organisms belonging to the Protista kingdom. These microorganisms are collared flagellates morphologically similar to the choanocyte cells of animal sponges, which have a central flagellum surrounded by a collar of microvilli. In consequence, it has been suggested that choanoflagellates may represent the closest living relatives of primitive metazoans (i.e., they are sister groups to sponges). This hypothesis has recently been supported by both molecular phylogenetic and comparative genomic analyses.

A volcanic eruption on the coast of Japan in 1850 deposits a layer of ash on top of a layer of red clay, and the ash is covered
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

The series of events mentioned in this description are as follows -  

a) In 1850, ash layer deposits over the layer of red clay  

b) In 1902, layer of silt from tsunami covers the ash

Now pot is found in between ash and red clay layer  

While coin is found in between ash and silt.  

Thus, it is clear that pot was first buried between the ash and red clay layer. While coin was buried in 1902 above the ash layer but beneath the silt layer.  

Hence, option B is correct

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

No it is not a scientific theory.

Explanation:

An explanation of any aspect of the natural phenomenon of the world that can be tested several times and well supported by the evidence, and follows the scientific method. Furthermore known as scientific theory.

Presently, a logical hypothesis must meet a few rules, and one of those is that it must be upheld by a few (and free) strands of proof.  

For this situation, we have just one hypothesis, that bulldogs are great pet and Meatball is great among bulldogs, and it isn't sufficient, at that point it can not be a scientific theory.
