Answer:

Amylose is an unbrached chain of D-glucose units connected by a-1,4-glycosidic bonds.  

Cellulose is chain of D-fructose units connected by | B-1,4-glycosidic bonds.

Explanation:

Both, amylose and cellulose are polysaccharides, meaning that they consist of a large number of monosaccharide units. Alo, both form linear structures composed of D-glucose. Differences in those two sugars are that amylose is storage molecule in which glucose unit are connected with α-(1, 4)-glycosidic bond, while cellulose is a structural molecule in which glucose units are linked with β (1, 4) glycosidic bonds.

Amylose is component of starch. Cellulose is the main component of the plants' cell wall.

How does the structure of the membrane relate to its selective permeability? (think about the chemical properties of the inner c
Katena32 [7]

The cell membrane is also called selectively permeable membrane for the sole reason being it is selective in nature.

It forms a physical barrier and as a barrier between the cell and the external environment as it allows only selected necessary molecules to pass through it and at the same time prevents entry of unwanted / unnecessary substances.

It also regulates the entry and exit of molecules into and out of the cell.

The cell membrane permits the entry of vital molecules like

<span>water, oxygen, amino acids and glucose into the cell as they are crucial for various life processes and at the same time metabolic waste products are expelled through the cell membrane.</span>

Write a paragraph about your choice of organelle. Provide the answers to these questions within your paragraph:
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

I'm a eukaryotic, plant cell. I would be the central vacuole that stores excess water, food, and waste. There's only one of me in a plant cell. If I weren't in the cell, it would collapse or burst, because it well lose its turgor pressure. Moreover, the cell won't have enough space to store all the water and molecules needed for conducting photosynthesis. I resemble the stomach in a human body; a stomach stores food and water for later use.

What is the starchy material inside seeds that provides nutrients for the embryonic plant called?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Endosperm

Explanation:

  • An endosperm develops in a seed after a process known as double fertilisation occurs in the ovary of a flower whereby one of the sperm nuclei inside a pollen grain reaches the interior of the embryo sac and fuses with the two polar nuclei forming a triploid nucleus which is the primary endosperm.
  • The endosperm supports embryonic growth by supplying nutrients and acting as a mechanical barrier to protect the embryo during seed development and germination.
  • The endosperm has living cells that regulate seed germination.
  • The endosperm is secreted with hydrolysis enzymes through the gibberellin hormone that induces the synthesis of amylase in the aleurone layer.
  • The hydrolysis enzyme catabolizes starch which act as energy source providing carbon and nitrogen for seed germination and seedling development.
