You are investigating the structure of the seeds of a newly discovered tropical plant. There is storage material inside the seed

. You treat the seed with peptidase (an enzyme that breaks peptide bonds), glycoside hydrolases (an enzyme that breaks ββ glycosidic bonds), and amylase (an enzyme that breaks αα glycosidic bonds). Only the amylase appears to dissolve the storage material in the seed. What does this tell you about the identity of the storage material?

Answer:

Answer is C

Explanation:

Since only starch have alpha glycosidic bond among all other macromolecules, and only amylase is appear to dissolve the storage material in the seed so the storage material is starch as a source of carbon and energy.

Answer:

Starch is present..

Explanation:

Since it is only amylase that produces a  positive  effect through its actions on the alpha-alpha bonds of the storage materials; the substance must be starch

Starch is made up of alpha-alpha glucose of amylose and amylopectin, not beta-beta-glucose, it is made up of  alpha -glycosidic bonds not peptide or beta-glycosidic. Therefore peptidase, and glycoside hydrolases, can not have a positive effects on these storage materials because the enzymes and substrate bonds are different. Therefore   enzyme-substrate complex formation will be  not be possible; to  dissolve the storage materials,

If a non-native species is introduced into an ecosystem and it competes for the same ecological niche as a native species, what
aleksandrvk [35]

The invasive species are the species who are present in a non native ecosystem. The invasion of These species disturbs the environment of particular system by increasing the competition or destroying the vital component of the ecosystem.

The invasive species can increase the competition in the native species, which would lead to the decrease in the number of the native species. There are many species present in the Hawaii department of the agriculture that are endangered, the competition cannot be tolerated here, as it can lead to the extinction of the endangered species present. So, in order to reduce the chance of the extinction due to competition, Hawaii department of Agriculture is very strict about the prevention of the non native or invasive species.

Storage forms of glucose in living things include _____.
const2013 [10]

Answer: Starch, Cellulose, inulin etc

Explanation:

Several units of glucose (monosaccharides) are linked to form polysaccharides. These polysaccharides are found in living things

For example:

In plants, starch serve as a stored form of energy, while cellulose, an indigestible material provide strength to plants

Also, starch consists of monosaccharides i.e glucose units with an alpha α-1, 4-glycosidic bond; while cellulose has the same glucose units, but linked by beta β-1, 4-glycosidic bonds
