Crayfish are invertebrates which means they don't have a backbone. They are also arthropods, which means that they have a protective exoskeleton on the outside of their body. Other arthropods include insects, spiders, and centipedes. Crayfish continually shed their exoskeleton and regrow a new one. During this transition is when they are most vulnerable to predators because they aren't protected by their outer shell.

Crayfish are found all over the world in many different freshwater environments, such as rivers, creeks, springs, and swamps. But this doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to find them. They are somewhat cryptic because they dig out homes for themselves under rocks and blend in well with their environment. Crayfish will ardently defend this dwelling against intruders using their strong front claws

Plants use glucose to synthesize cellulose. Which statement accurately describes this process?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Sugar, which is a product of the photosynthetic process of green plants can be converted to glucose (a simple carbohydrate). Enormous amount of these glucose molecules can be linked together to form a complex carbohydrate called cellulose, which is a polysaccharide because it is made up of a long chain of glucose molecules. The cellulose is ultimately used to build the cell wall of plants.

Anabolism is the production of a complex molecule by a living organism from a much simpler one. Since, cellulose is produced by the building up of glucose molecules, the process can therefore, said to be anabolic
