Answer:

Glycogen is produced by animals while starch is produced by green plants

Explanation:

Following are the differences between starch and glycogen-

1. The structure of starch is larger as compared to that of glycogen. Glycogens has one molecule while starch has two molecules of glucose

2. Glycogen is produced by animals in their liver, muscles, brain, uterus etc. therefore it is also known as animal starch while starch is produced by green plants.  

3. Glycogen has only branched structure while starch has both branched and chain structure.

<span>Correct, starch is found in plants and glycogen in animals. BUT, glycogen is found in all animal cells, not just muscle cells. Glycogen is present in the highest amounts in both muscle and liver cells, where it appears as large granules</span>

In response to seasonal changes in temperature, many organisms must alter the composition of their plasma membranes to maintain
katrin [286]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

The cell membrane is essentially composed of the following:

  • phospholipids
  • cholesterol
  • proteins

The phospholipid consists of a <em>hydrophilic </em>phosphate 'head' and the tail is the <em>hydrophobic</em> fatty acid chain.When cellular membranes form,phospholipids collect into two layers in light of these hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. The phosphate heads in each layer face the fluid or watery condition on either side, and the tails conceal away from the water between the layers of heads, since they are hydrophobic.

There are 3 main factors that greatly influence the fluidity of the plasma membrane:

  • temperature
  • cholesterol
  • saturated and unsaturated fatty acids

The toxic cyanide anion (CN-) binds to cytochrome c oxidase and prevents electron transfer. Dosing of BP-CML cells with cyanide
astra-53 [7]

Answer: C. Ii & III are correct

II. reduced intracellular ATP.

III. apoptosis or necrosis.

Explanation:

Cytochrome c oxidase controls the last step of food oxidation. Cytochrome c oxidase is an enzyme responsible for electron transfer in the electron transport chain (ETC), it inhibit in slowing down or stopping the ETC.

Consequently, ATP production would be gradually reduced, as the ETC is responsible for the majority of ATP production. This shows option II is correct.

The question starts by stating that cyanide is highly toxic, so this match up with the fact that a large dose would also cause cell death (apoptosis or necrosis). Therefore, option III is also accurate.

Option I: Inhibiting the ETC is consequential as it reduces oxygen demand because electrons would not flow to oxygen, the final electron acceptor.
