The answer is whales. In the Antartic and Arctic regions, krills and whales are very abundant in numbers. Whales are number one consumer of krills in these regions. They can feed on a large swarm of krills when they feed. They also have less competition on these icy waters. They gain energy every time from eating them.
Answer:
i) Glucose
ii) β(1-4) glycosidic bonds.
iii) Oxygen
Explanation:
Cellulose is an important structural carbohydrate found in plants. It forms a major component of the plant cell wall.
Cellulose is a polysaccharide formed by monomers of glucose. These glucose monomers are joined together by covalent bonds called β(1-4) glycosidic bonds, which means that the 1st carbon of one glucose is bound to the 4th carbon of the next glucose. To make this arrangement, every other glucose molecule in cellulose is inverted, which you can see in the diagram.
Glucose monomers contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen only. If you look at the pattern of the molecule (remembering every second glucose is inverted), you can see that Z must be O.
The functional group denoted by Z is oxygen. The OH groups on the glucose from one cellulose chain form hydrogen bonds with oxygen atoms on the same or on another chain, holding the chains firmly together and forming very strong molecules - giving cellulose its strength.
O2 (oxygen) is a covalent compound
A: Population
If a group of one certain species are living in the same area they are a population. The same goes for humans, we are the same species and when we live in the same area we say we are part of a population. That’s why you would hear things like “the population of massachusetts is 2million” or whatever it is.
