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.

Symptoms of uric acid.​
irina [24]

Answer:

Elevated uric acid levels lead to a condition known as "Hyperuricemia."

Explanation:

This condition occurs when there is an excessive presence of uric acid in the blood. It can be divided into:

  • Primary hyperuricemia
  • Secondary hyperuricemia

Primary hyperuricemia occurs when the kidneys are not able to eliminate uric acid in an efficient/proper way. This can be due to the consumption of foos that are very high in purines. For example, liver, gravy, alcoholic beverages, and some vegetables such as spinach and asparagus.

Secondary hyperuricemia may occur to several possible reasons. For instance, kidney disease, in which the kidney is not able to eliminate uric acid; chemotherapy, which may lead to the accumulation of uric acids; or medications that increase the level of uric acid in the blood.

Symptoms include:

  • Fever.
  • Extreme and abnormal fatigue.
  • Joint inflammation.
  • Urination problems.
  • Kidney stones.

To prevent this disease and as part of a treatment (along with medications prescribed by a doctor), a patient should opt to consume foods that are low in purine, such as lettuce, tomatoes, cereals, fruits, milk, eggs, amongst others.

Explain why some peas in the experiment produced carbon dioxide
Stells [14]
The peas haven't start germinating, which means no leaves. They can't undergo photosynthesis to produce oxygen. At this stage they are still undergoing respiration, which produce carbon dioxide.
