Answer:

B. Polysaccharide

Explanation:

A polysaccharide is a carbohydrate molecule made up of several units of monomers called monosaccharides linked together by glycosidic bonds. The monosaccharide is the simplest unit of a carbohydrate with the general formula, (CH2O)n.

However, the monosaccharides, which include glucose, fructose, galactose etc can link up by a bond to form a much larger carbohydrate molecule called POLYSACCHARIDE. As depicted in the image attached to this question, each ring is a monosaccharide, which becomes linked to one another to form a polymer called polysaccharide. Examples of polysaccharides are starch, glycogen, cellulose

liberstina [14]

Answer: c. 0.15%

Explanation:

The blood alcohol concentration or BAC refers to the percentage of alcohol present in the bloodstream. The value of blood alcohol concentration of 0.15% is very high. It will affect the balance of voluntary muscles, walking and talking will also become difficult. The person will experience a severe increase in the rate of heart, the body temperature will rise, the person will experience irregular breathing and the bladder control will become weak.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

C) Bacteria congregated in these areas because these areas had the most oxygen being released.

Explanation:

Below is the full question:

Theodor W. Engelmann illuminated a filament of algae with light that passed through a prism, thus exposing different segments of algae to different wavelengths of light. He added aerobic bacteria and then noted in which areas the bacteria congregated. He noted that the largest groups were found in the areas illuminated by the red and blue light.

What did Engelmann conclude about the congregation of bacteria in the red and blue areas?

A) Bacteria released excess carbon dioxide in these areas.

B) Bacteria congregated in these areas due to an increase in the temperature of the red and blue light.

C) Bacteria congregated in these areas because these areas had the most oxygen being released.

D) Bacteria are attracted to red and blue light and thus these wavelengths are more reactive than other wavelengths.

E) Bacteria congregated in these areas due to an increase in the temperature caused by an increase in photosynthesis.

The most efficient region of white light for photosynthesis has been found to be the blue and red region of the white light. Hence, these two regions must have had the most oxygen being released because they are the regions with the highest rates of photosynthesis.

<em>Aerobic bacteria thrived better in the regions illuminated by red and blue light because these regions had the highest oxygen production as a result of having the highest rates of photosynthesis.</em>

<em>The correct option is C.</em>
