Answer:
<u>Starch</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in plants and the glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,4 glycosidic linkage.
<u>Cellulose </u>is a structural component of the plant cell wall and glucose molecules are linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage.
<u>Glycogen</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in animals and glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic linkage.
Explanation:
All of these sugars are polysaccaride sugars containing large number of glucose subunits.
Starch is a polysaccharide extracted from agricultural raw materials. It contains amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is an un-branched chain polymer of D-glucose units while amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of D-glucose units.
Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals, It is stored in muscles and liver and it is a branched polysaccaride.
Cellulose is the storage form of glucose in plants and leaves.
Answer:
This question is incomplete; the complete part is:
Which of the following best explains the reactions of these enzymes?
A) Amylase aids in the removal of a water molecule to break covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the addition of a water molecule to form covalent bonds.
B) Amylase aids in the addition of a water molecule to break covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the removal of a water molecule to form covalent bonds.
C) Amylase aids in the addition of a water molecule to form covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the removal of a water molecule to break covalent bonds.
D) Amylase aids in the removal of a water molecule to form covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the addition of a water molecule to break covalent bonds.
The answer is A
Explanation:
In nature, MONOMERS are simpler units that come together to form larger units called POLYMERS. According to this question, Amylase converts carbohydrate polymers to monomers while Glycogen synthase converts carbohydrate monomers to polymers.
Monomers of carbohydrate are joined together by adding water molecule to form covalent bonds between the monomer units, hence, forming a POLYMER. This is how Glycogen synthase catalyzes its reaction of forming carbohydrate polymer (glycogen).
On the other hand, Amylase breaks down large polymer molecules into monomers by removing water molecules in a process called HYDROLYSIS. This breaks the covalent bond that holds the monomeric units together.
The right answer is Thanh's grade is 2.5 standard deviations below the mean of the test grades.
The z scores are standard deviations. If, for example, a tool returns a z score of +2.5, it means that the result is a standard deviation of 2.5.
Very high or very low (negative) z scores associated with very low p values are at the ends of the normal distribution.
Answer:
It helps us to see things.
It helps plants to make food and grow.
It is used in power satellites and space stations.
It is used in many electronic appliances.
The energy of light from the sun can be harvested to solar panels and can be used for domestic use since it is eco-friendly and cost effective too.
Explanation:
Answer:
Following are the correctly rank steps:
1. The binding of glucose takes place with the transporter on one side of the membrane.
2. The binding of glucose leads to a conformational change, which opens the site of binding on the contrary side of the membrane.
3. The dissociation of glucose takes place.
4. The transporter moves back to the beginning conformation.
