Despite the humpback whale and whale shark being similar in size, they are not as closely related as the humpback whale is to the spider monkey, which is far smaller in size. This provides evidence that size of a specie is not a good indicator of its relationship to other species.

Explain why it is an advantage for plants to store carbohydrates as starch rather than as sugars​
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

More energy are packed into less space by starch molecules far more than glucose or sucrose yet they are able to release this energy easily, hence maximizing both storage and mobilization.

Explanation:

When plants have a period of dormancy to survive, they store their food as starch. They store enough of this energy so as to be able to restart with and to be able to maintain metabolism for the entire period of dormancy.

In addition, we know that starch is not water soluble, hence, lacks the ability to pull water into storage cells or cause irregularity in water balance. More energy are packed into less space by starch molecules far more than glucose or sucrose yet they are able to release this energy easily, hence maximizing both storage and mobilization.

Glucose is not directly transported by plants to storage. Rather, in a plant stem, the form of carbohydrate being transported is sucrose and this is because it is a non-reducing and does not react with oxygen during transport in the stem to specialized storage plastids.

Compare and contrast bioarchaeology and forensic anthropology. What are their similarities and differences? g
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Bioarchaeology is a discipline that studies human skeletal remains in an archaeological investigation; while forensic anthropology refers to the study of human skeletal remains in a criminal case  

Explanation:

Bioarchaeology is a discipline centered on the study of skeletal remains in order to obtain useful information about past societies/civilizations such as, for example, health conditions. On the other hand, forensic anthropology investigates human skeletal remains within a legal and/or criminal investigation. This information may result useful to identify a dead person, find the cause of death, and estimate time since death.

Similarities:

-Both disciplines have a strong biology background (especially in zoology)

-Both disciplines are focused on skeletal analysis

Differences:

-Bioarchaeology is associated with the anthropological study of human societies, while forensic anthropology associated with legal investigations
