<span><span> (I) Glucose; is C
(II) Starch; A
(III) Sucrose</span> B

A) Polysaccharides
B) Disaccharides
C) Monosaccharides

</span><span><span>Monosaccharide, disaccharides, and polysaccharides are the three major categories of molecules in Carbohydrates. </span>

Monosaccharides, known as simple sugar, is the simplest form of carbohydrates. Its basic molecular formula is CH2O. Monosaccharides are glucose, fructose, and galactose. Its primary function is to be the source of energy of living organisms. It is also the primary requirement for the formation of disaccharides and polysaccharides.

Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides are bonded together through a covalent bond. Common Dissaccharides are sucrose  (glucose+fructose) or table sugar, maltose (glucose+glucose), and lactose (glucose+galactose). Its primary function is to provide nutrition for monosaccharides. Sugar in food is mostly dissaccharides.

<span>Polysaccharides are formed when another monosaccharides is bonded to the disaccharides. This bond is called glycosidic bond. Two major polysaccharides are starch and glycogen. Starch is made by plants while glycogen is made by animals. Polysaccharides' major function is to immediately release energy from its storage. When glucose is consumed, some of them are stored and will only be released when the body needs it to satisfy the body's immediate need of energy.</span> </span>

Plant height in pea plants is controlled by a single gene. T is tall while t is short. Match the genotype on the left with possi
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

A. Tt  - Tall or Short or Both

B. tt - Short Only

C. TT- Tall Only

Explanation:

Given -

Height of plant is controlled by a single gene.

"T" represents tall heighted plant while "t" represents short heighted plant

Considering "t" is a recessive allele and "T" is a dominant allele.

Thus,

a) Tall Only means that both the alleles in the genotype would be "TT"

b) Short Only means that both the alleles in the genotype would be "tt"

c) Tall or Short or Both means that the genotype has one "T" and another "t" allele, represneted by "Tt"

Thus,

A. Tt  - Tall or Short or Both

B. tt - Short Only

C. TT- Tall Only

_______ is located in the anterior neck produces key hormones for metabolism
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

THYROID GLAND

Explanation:

Thyroid gland functions in metabolisms by activities of thyroid cells.This cells  withdraws  Iodine from metabolites and combine it with amino acid tyrosine  for  productions of Thyroid hormones:

ThyroxineT3,(20%)

TriiodothyronineT4(80%). This production is under the influence of Thyroid stimulating hormones,regulated by the pituitary gland,

T3 and T4  increase calorinogenesis, (liberation of heat from digestion to supply energy,and oxygen consumption of the heart.)

Deficiency of thyroid hormones are goiters, hypothyroidism, and hyperthyroidism

How do enzymatic catalysts increase the rates of reactions?
dsp73
For a reaction to occur, substrate particles need to collide with each other with enough force (To overcome activation energy), at the right orientation for a successful collision, causing a reaction to occur.

Enzyme catalysts are a type of protein that has a specific 3 dimensional conformation. They have specific reaction sites called active sites. Substrates collides with the enzyme and binds to the active site if it fits to the specific 3 dimensional conformation. This allows bonds to be either formed or broken for reactions to occur.

This process provides an alternative reaction pathway with lower activation energy to enable the rate of reaction to increase.
