Answer:
Fossils are the remains of ancient plants and animals that were buried millions of years back. These are found to be embedded in the sedimentary types of rocks. The earliest known direct fossils are not obtained in the present day, but the imprints of these fossils are explored in many of the places. These were the ancient micro-fossils such as bacterias, cyanobacteria that existed about 3.5 billion years back.
Some of the direct evidence of fossils are obtained from the rocks in the western part of Australia and the southwestern part of Greenland.
Thus, the imprints of these fossils are found in many rocks at different places, and this suggests the existence of life during that particular time frame.
The plant will wilt because the concentration of water in saltwater is lower than the concentration of water in the plant itself (because it is a freshwater plant). Water will diffuse out of each individual cell and the cell will crenellate (or shrivel up) causing the plant to wilt.
Answer:
Cellulose is held by beta 1,4-glycosidic bonds making it linear while Glycogen is held by an alpha 1,4-glycosidic bond making it highly branched.
Explanation:
Cellulose and Glycogen are both carbohydrate polysaccharides formed from glucose monomers. According to the question, cellulose is a tough, fibrous, and insoluble (in water) polymer found to play a structural role in plants' cell wall while Glycogen is another polymer obtained from muscle or liver and disperses readily in hot water to make a turbid solution.
Although these two polysaccharides (cellulose and glycogen) are linked by (1, 4)-glycosidic bonds but the glucose monomers in CELLULOSE are linked by a beta 1,4-glycosidic, hence, making it a straight or linear polymer
GLYCOGEN, on the other hand, is linked by an alpha 1,4-glycosidic bond making it an highly branched polymer. This structure is responsible for the different physical properties of the two molecules.
Answer & Explanation:
An organic molecule is one which contains carbon, although not all compounds that contain carbon are organic molecules. ... Although carbon is present in all organic compounds, other elements such as hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P) are also common in these molecules.
