7 0

Explanation:

(1)Starch

Carbohydrates are molecules that supply energy and provide support consist mainly of sugars or starches in long chains and rings to form monosaccharide monomers. Inclusive of monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides (which describes the type of bonding and the degree of complexity of the polymers), their basic makeup comprises C, H, O -with many polar OH groups.

Many long chain polysaccharides are made up of glucose joined by regular 1-4 glycosidic bonds used as energy storage (produced through phtosynthesis) and used for ATP synthesis via respiration, ethyl alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation. Plants are mostly comprised of structural units cellulose and lignin. However, cellulose is their main structural polysaccharide, found within cell walls.

It is made up of special β, 1-4 glycosidic bonds, which give structural polysaccharides their rigid, strong structure; cellulose is not water-soluble and is highly stable.  When arranged in α 1-4 glycosidic bonds these molecules are water-soluble and form the stable storage molecule starch. Starch is the main storage reserve in plants- the polymer is produced after glucose production in photosynthesis.

How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?
Mice21 [21]
The first statement is wrong because photosynthesis occur during day by plants, while respiration happens during day and night which are very related and they can be happened at the same time, in other hand photosynthesis cannot Accor in human cells because animal cells do not have chloroplasts which are using light energy to make glucose ,but in our cells or in animal cells we have mitochondria which break down the energy to make ATP....
for the second statement I'm not sure about that ....
I think that the third statement Is correct, because
the Cellular respiration make carbon dioxide + water + ATP then those would be then used by photosynthesis to make glucose and oxygen .

suppopse you were going to deisgn a system for the rapid diffusion of oxygen across a phosphlipid bilayer. according to fick's l
Llana [10]

Answer:

According to Fick's law, the rate of diffusion of any substance across any barrier is<u> directly proportional to the surface area of the membrane or any layer exposed. and the concentration of the diffusing substance available, but the rate is inversely proportional to the diffusion distance available.</u>

<u />

Thus the rate at which oxygen will move across the phospholipid  bilayer will depend on the concentration or amount  per mole  of the oxygen molecule hitting the phopholipid at  a prticular time and how permeable the phospholipd layer is to oxygen molecules, but the rate of its  movement across will be reduced as the distance between the phosphoslipid bilayer and the diffusing molecules  increases.

Therefore, the concentration of oxygen should be maximised, the surface area of the phospholipid  bilayer should also be maximized. the distances between the phopholipid and the  vessel containing the diffusing oxygen molecules should be drastically reduced. With this Fick's law  has been applied , and therefore maximum oxygen molecules can diffuse across.
