Answer:

The correct answer is A each has branches of similar chain length.

Explanation:

Amylopectin and glycogen are both branched polysaccharide.They both have one reducing end and many nonreducing end.Both of them contain thousands of glucose monomers.

     But they contain branches of different chain length.In case of amylopectin the branches occur at every 25-30 monomeric residues of glucose whereas in glycogen branching occur at every 8-12 glucose monomers.

      As a result their branching occur at different chain length.

Describe a DNA mutation and how it can affect an offspring.
Greeley [361]
A DNA mutation is a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene, such that the sequence differs from what is found in most people. Mutations range in size; they can affect anywhere from a single DNA building block (base pair) to a large segment of a chromosome that includes multiple genes. DNA mutations can affect an offspring can result in abnormal protein products. Mutations can also introduce new alleles into a population of organisms and increase the population's genetic variation.

Several biology students are counting kernels in an ear of corn. They count a total of 420 kernels: 242 purple wrinkled, 84 purp
s2008m [1.1K]
The answer is C) 9:3:3:1

This looks like a dihybrid cross where the expected phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1. However, in nature, the numbers cannot be absolut. Let's check it out:
242 purple wrinkled
84 purple smooth
70 yellow wrinkled
24 yellow smooth

Divide all by the smallest number:
242 purple wrinkled / 24
84 purple smooth / 24
70 yellow wrinkled / 24
24 yellow smooth / 24

We have 
10.1 purple wrinkled which is near to 9
3.5 purple smooth which is near to 3
2.9 yellow wrinkled which is near to 3
1 yellow smooth

Vegetables for a buffet must be heated to what temperature
maria [59]

Explanation:

It should be noted that the vegetables at a buffet should be heated to a temperature of about 140°F or above. This is necessary in order to prevent the food from spoiling which is referred to as the temperature danger zone which is when the temperature is lesser and this can result into bacteria growing on the food.
