Answer: 19 water molecules

Explanation:

Polymerization can be defined as the process by which monomers gets attached to one another to form a polymer. Example: ethene polymerize to form polyethylene.

Polymerization of 20 monomers of cellulose molecules releases 19 molecules of water.

Polymer bond is formed when -OH  group from the first monomers is attached to the H molecules of the second monomers.

For, 20 monomers there will be 19 water molecules released.

Characterization of the leptospiral outer membrane and description of three novel leptospiral membrane proteins
natka813 [3]

It has been challenging to develop methods for outer-membrane(OM) isolation from <em>Leptospira</em> species and other spirochetes due to their distinctive design and a lack of sensitive cytoplasmic membrane indicators.

Spirochetes have an OM and a cytoplasmic membrane, which are divided by a periplasmic space, just like enteric gram-negative bacteria.The leptospiral OM contains a significant amount of LPS, and the leptospiral surface is dominated by its polysaccharides.

LipL32, LipL36, and LipL41 are three lipoproteins from the leptospiral OM.

Since LipL32 is an immunodominant antigen during human leptospirosis, it is recognized to be the most prominent protein in the leptospiral protein profile. OmpL1 and LipL41 together offer synergistic immunoprotection. LipL41 is a surface-exposed lipoprotein.

Species with homologous structures most likely:
nikitadnepr [17]

Species with more likely homologous structures share a common ancestor.

  • D. share a common ancestor.

<h3>What are example homologous structures?</h3>

The most correct definition for homology would be: They are structures of individuals, of different species or not, that were inherited from a common ancestor. The human arm is homologous to the horse's front leg. The bat's wing is homologous to the whale fin.

With this information, we can conclude that homologous  have same embryological origin of structures from different organisms, and these structures may or may not have the same function
