Answer:

Option B , Starch is found in plants, and glycogen is found in animals.

Explanation:

Starch is a form of food reserve that is stored in plants in the form of amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is a simple glucose polymer while Amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of glucose.

Glycogen is found in animals. It is a complex chain of glucose molecule that is stored in liver. The glycogen is synthesized by animals for purpose of providing energy to muscles

Hence, option B is correct

RUDIKE [14]

Hi. You have not submitted any images about the microorganism the question refers to. This makes it impossible for me to answer your question. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

Gram stain is a test done to find out whether the bacteria are gram negative or gram positive. In this test, the bacteria are submitted to a certain type of dye and then are observed under a microscope. If the bacteria is gram positive, it will be purple in color. If the bacteria is gram negative, it will be red in color.

This is because after they are subjected to the violet dye, both types of bacteria absorb the color of the dye. However, before being observed under the microscope, the bacteria are washed with alcohol. Alcohol removes the dye from the gram negative bacteria, leaving them reddish. On the other hand, in gram positive bacteria, alcohol dehydrates the cell wall, compressing the pores and making the cell wall impermeable, preventing the dye from being released and, therefore, leaving the bacteria with a purple color.

Degger [83]

Various species of the flowering plant of the genus <em>Chrysanthemum </em>have 18, 36, 54, 72, and 90 chromosomes. The variation is likely due to polyploidy.

<h3>What is polyploidy?</h3>

Polyploidy can be defined as the number of complete sets of chromosomes in a given cell of an organism.

A diploid organism contains two complete sets of homo-logous chromosomes in its somatic cells.

Many organisms used polyploidy as an evolutionary strategy for adaptation to challenging environmental conditions.
