Answer:

A) Starch, which is synthesized by plants, and glycogen, which is synthesized by animals.

Both compounds are carbohydrate polymers, but are composed of different compounds. Starch is actually a mixture of two slightly different polysaccharides while glycogen is essentially amylopectin. (explanation from USATestprep)

Answer:

4 1/4

Explanation:

17/4 = 4/4 + 4/4 + 4/4 + 4/4 + 1/4

4 + 4 = 8

4 + 4 = 8

8+8=16 = 16/4

16/4 + the 1/4 remaining in the equation = 17/4

so 4/4 + 4/4 + 4/4 + 4/4 = 4

4 + 1/4 = 4 1/4

sorry if you couldnt follow along. I am not good at explaining things but the answer is 4 1/4
