Convergent evolution occurs when two species living in the same area are competing for the same resource thus causing one to evo

lve away from the other. different areas become reestablished and are able to reproduce. different areas evolve similarities through natural selection acting on those characteristics. the same area become reproductively isolated.

When wearing your seatbelt it should fit ____ and ___ across your waist and across the chest diagonally?
RSB [31]
<span>A seatbelt should be fastened so as to run diagonally across the chest and to fit low and tight across the waist. This ensures that, during the rapid deceleration experienced during a crash, the seatbelt will perform the intended function, that is, to keep the passenger in place within the vehicle.</span>

Starch, cellulose, dextran, and glycogen are polysaccharides. How are they similar? To what are their different properties due?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

similarity

Starch, cellulose,dextran and glycogen are all polymers of glucose

differences

                monomer/glucose     glycosidic bond    branching

1.starch              α glucose          1-4 and 1-6               branch and unbranced

  amylose                                       1-4                          unbranched

  amylopectin                               1-4 and 1-6              branched

2. dextran          α glucose          1-6                           branched

3. cellulose        β glucose           1-4                          unbranched, linear        

4. glycogen       α glucose           1-4 and 1-6              branched (shorter

                                                                                     branches than starch)

Enzyme: amlase acts on starch and cellulase acts on cellulose as they are specific for their substrates.

Explanation:

Starch: Consists of both branched amylopectin and unbranched amylose

Enzymes: Enzymes are specific as the gulcose molecule in starch is α and in cellulose is β which differ in their position of hydroxyl groups at anomeric carbon, their structures differ so they form different bonds. Active sites of enzymes can act only on specific bonds a sthey can fit to their specific substrates.

gavmur [86]

When Amanda poured some of the liquid in a test tube, she noticed that the edges of the water curved upward, which is an example of adhesion.

When Pol filled another test tube to the top, the liquid formed a low dome, which is evidence of cohesion.

When Amanda added table salt to the first test tube and shook it, she noted that the liquid had dissolved the solute.

All of these observations indicated the presence of covalent bonds.

Pol determined that the pH of the sample is 7, which shows the sample is neutral.

Based on all of the evidence Amanda and Pol gathered, the unknown liquid is water.
