The correct answer is option D, that is, C30H52O26.  

The majority of macromolecules are formed as single building blocks or subunits, known as monomers. The monomers attach to each other through covalent bonds to produce bigger molecules called polymers. In performing so, the monomers discharge molecules of water as byproducts. This kind of reaction is called dehydration synthesis.  

In a dehydration synthesis reaction among the two un-ionized monomers, like monosaccharide sugars, the hydrogen of one monomer merges with the hydroxyl group of another monomer, discharging a water molecule in the process.  

The withdrawal of a hydrogen from one monomer and the withdrawal of a hydroxyl from the other monomer permits the monomers to share electrons and produce a covalent bond. Therefore, the monomers, which are combined together are being dehydrated to permit for the production of a larger molecule.

Which of the following does NOT describe bacteria? They help break down dead organic material so it can be recycled into a usabl
vovangra [49]
I think the correct answer would be the third option. Organisms that help break down dead organic material so it can be recycled into a usable form for other organisms are called decomposers and this would include some of the bacteria. Also, there is a number of bacteria that are capable of breaking down some of the harmful products like in recent studies there are bacteria that could dechlorinate the toxic PCB substance. Some bacteria, as well, lives in the human intestines which aids in the breaking down of the food into useful molecules. The third option is partially true since there are some bacteria like the cyanobacteria which produces oxygen but it does not contribute largely to the oxygen present in the atmosphere.

Quiz: sensation and perception select the best answer to each question. our perception of the brightness of a color is affected
zmey [24]

Our perception of the brightness of a color is affected mainly by: the amplitude of light waves.

Night and peripheral vision depend mainly on rods, while daylight and acute vision depend mainly on cones.

The amount of light entering the eye is regulated by changes in the size of the pupil.

If you project a red, a green, and a blue light into space, the point at which the three lights cross will lead to the perception of white light.

eric has been wearing red welding goggles for the past 30 minutes. Based on the opponent-process theory of color vision, when Eric takes off the red goggles, he should expect that objects will temporarily appear to be green.

How could you test to see if soil temp was responsible for a variation in flower color?
Lostsunrise [7]
To design an experiment, you must set all other variables constant. These may include the environment, soil type, plant/flower type, water treatment and other essential variables. The only parameter you should vary is the soil temperature.
