Answer:

Homoglycan:

Homoglycan are the chemicals that are made up of one type of monosaccharide monomers only. They are the homopolymer carbohydrates. For example: galactans made up of glucose unit linked through the glycosidic bonds.

Heteroglycan:

Heteroglycans are the chemical that are made up of different monosaccharide units. They are heteropolymer carbohydrates. For example: Hayluronic acid made of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine linked through glycosidic bonds.

Why is redi's experiment a good example of a controlled experiment
Step2247 [10]
A controlled experiment is when the experimenter can change one variable in the experiment and completely change the results.

Redi experiment involved a closed jar with rotting meat on the inside. He waited for a few days and found no new forms of life in the jar.
He then did the same experiment, but this time he took the lid off the jar. After those few days he found there were maggots in the rotting meat from flies.

This is a great example of a controlled experiment, because he only had to change one variable to completely change the results. In this case that variable was just removing the lid from the jar.

Redi was trying to prove spontaneous generation with his experiment. Although, it failed.

Spontaneous generation: When life forms from non-livings.

Redi disproved spontaneous generation, but proved biogenesis.

Biogenesis: When life comes from other living beings.

He proved biogenesis because the flies had reproduced when the jar was opened.

Chemoautotrophs are organism that utilizes inorganic molecules to supply energy for the organism, and use carbon dioxide as a carbon source. Chemoautotrophs are mostly prokaryotes that break down hydrogen sulfide and ammonia.

Most Eukaryotes cannot utilize these inorganic molecules as energy source.

When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons unequally (one atoms pulls more than the other), the bond is said to be __________
IrinaK [193]
When atoms in a covalent bond share electrons unequally (one atoms pulls more than the other), the bond is said to be a polar bond is formed when electrons are unequally shared between two atoms. Polar covalent bonding occurs because one atom has a stronger affinity for electrons than the other (yet not enough to pull the electrons away completely and form an ion).
