<span>Cellulose is a lot stronger than starch. Starch is practically useless as a material, but celluose is strong enough to make fibers from, and hence rope, clothing, etc. Cellulose doesn't dissolve in water the way starch will, and doesn't break down as easily.
</span>Your body contains enzymes that break starch down into glucose to fuel your body. But we humans don't have enzymes that can break down cellulose.

What biotic and abiotic factors are involved in determining an animal's niche?
Effectus [21]
The niche is considered an animals role in an environment. It describes not only the habitat that the animal lives in, but what the organism does within the habitat. All abiotic and biotic factors are included in a niche, including abiotic factors like the temperature the organism can survive in, as well as the amount of sunlight and water needed for the organism to survive. Biotic factors include what the food source is for the organism, and the predators of the organism.

I hope this helps!!

Choose the true statement(s) that support(s) the endosymbiotic theory. To be marked correct, you'll need to select all true stat
horsena [70]

Answer:

a.Many mitochondrial genes resemble proteobacteria genes, while the genes in the chloroplast resemble genes found in some photosynthetic bacteria.

c.Mitochondria and chloroplasts both have their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes that are similar to those found in bacteria.

d.Mitochondria and chloroplasts replicate by a process similar to mitosis.

Explanation:

Endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplast which are organelles of eukaryotic cells were once independently living micro-organisms but with due course of time eukaryotic cells engulfed them and they become an integral part of these eukaryotic cells.

The resemblance between mitochondrial genes with those of proteobacteria and chloroplast genes with photosynthetic bacteria strongly support endosymbiotic theory. Apart from this, the presence of their own DNA that too circular just like prokaryotic microbes and 70 S ribosomes also support this theory. Also just like prokaryotic cells, before cell division mitochondria and chloroplasts undergo replication by means of a process known as binary fission.
