Answer:
A
Explanation:
Because there are two DNA strands in the DNA molecule and they both rotate around each other in a helix formation. So two helixes = double helix.
Cellulose is another long polymer of glucose. Plant cells make their cell walls out of cellulose. In fact, 100 billion tons of cellulose is made every year on earth. Cellulose is indigestible in most animals, including us. Ever eat a cardboard box? You get the picture. We simply lack cellulase, the enzyme that can break it down. Some bacteria, some single-celled protists, and fungi have the enzyme. Animals that feed on cellulose harbor these microbes that help them digest it. Even though, we cannot break down this molecule, we do need cellulose in our diet. We call it “fiber”. Cellulose stimulates the colon to produce regular bowel movements and helps make the stools large and soft. A diet rich in fiber can prevent a painful intestinal disorder called diverticulosis. Hard impacted stools can sometimes cause the walls of the colon to form blind outpockets called diverticula which can periodically inflame. So what makes cellulose different from starch? Isn’t it made of glucose? Well it is but the glucose monomers are organized in an interesting fashion. The orientation of the glucose molecules alternates. So if the first one is right side up, the next one is upside down and then the next is right side up and the next one is upside down. Apparently this is a tricky arrangement for an enzyme to break.
Active faults are structure along which we expect displacement to occur. By definition, since a shallow earthquake is a process that produces displacement across a fault, all shallow earthquakes occur on active faults. Inactive faults are structures that we can identify, but which do no have earthquakes.
Hello!! I always remember recessive genes as someone having a passive personality and dominant genes as having an assertive personality. Therefore, dominant genes would mask others when present because they have that assertive personality. If you think about it as babies, when their dad has darker hair and the mother has lighter hair, the baby will most likely have darker hair because the darker hair is the dominant gene. I would say that the answer would be false. If you are having trouble understanding, you can always make a Punnett square and see what your outcomes are. I hope I helped. Have a great day!!
