Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is a type of chemical reaction where a water molecule is utilized or consumed to rupture the chemical bonds. In these reactions, water acts as a nucleophile and separate the larger molecules into its components.

In the given question, the process of cellulolysis or the breakdown of cellulose to smaller polysaccharide like cellodextrins or glucose units is a hydrolytic reaction.  This reaction requires an ionic solvent as cellulose molecules bind strongly to each other and cellulolysis Is difficult.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Which factor when doubled would produce the greatest change in the centripetal force?
yaroslaw [1]
Let us consider the centripetal force equation,  
centripetal force F = mv² / r  
 f= force
 v= velocity
 m= mass
 r= radius.
 
 in all the factors only velocity has the power of 2. so when you double the velocity then it will become square of that. 
 if v= 2v , F = m4v² / r 
 so velocity is doubled it would produce the greatest change in the centripetal force.

Why is variety in crop plants important for food security?
aev [14]

Answer:

Disease and Famine

Explanation:

If there is a disease that affects a type of plant, having other types of crops to rely on could save one from starvation. Also, only planting one crop in an area can change the pH and nitrogen levels in negative ways, so that eventually no plants can grow there. Not to mention the obvious balanced diet needed for a healthy body.

How do bacteria maintain their internal ph despite the ph of the environment in which they grow?
ipn [44]
The answer to this question would be: by producing buffer

The pH of optimal growth of bacteria might be different. Some bacteria can grow in an acid condition called acidophile, other live in base condition called alkaliphiles and the rest live in neutral pH condition called neutrophiles. The bacteria can maintain their internal pH by producing acid, base or buffer. If the surrounding pH is too acid, the bacteria can reduce the H+ concentration by producing base. If the condition is too alkali/base, the bacteria can produce acid by doing fermentation.
