Complex carbohydrates that serve as energy storage molecules in animals and plants must be easily digestible so that the molecul

e can release monomers which contain stored energy. Enzymes responsible for catalyzing they hydrolysis reactions that release carbohydrate monomers are only able to break alpha bonds. Based on this knowledge, which of the carbohydrate polymers below would you expect to be made from alpha bonds? A. cellulose B. peptidoglycan C. starch D. chitin

Answer: C. starch

Explanation:

starch is a polysacharride made up of amylose (unbranched molecule) and amylopectin (branched molecule)  both of  alpha glucose.

Alpha glucose have OH -hydroxyl group below the first carbon in the ring structure.

these  alpha carbons of the amylose and amylopectinc are fused by condensation reaction to form alpha glycosidic bonds.

for example  the 1,4, alpha glycosidic bonds in starch is formed between the alpha cabon 1 on one ring structure of glucose and carbon 4 of the next carbon in amylose .it  is long coiled to give a compact structute to starch. While the shorter 1, 6 alpha glycosidic bond added to the relatively large grains of starch.

What is the relationship among energy, photosynthesis,and respiration? *
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Photosynthesis stores energy, and respiration releases energy.

Explanation:

When plants doing photosynthesis, they will catch the energy from sunlight. The reaction then will store the energy by making glucose. Glucose has high energy that can be released by doing respiration.

Respiration will break down glucose using oxygen and the energy stored inside glucose is released. The energy will be used to synthesize ATP and ATP will be used as main energy.
