Answer:

<u>Starch</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in plants and the glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Cellulose </u>is a structural component of the plant cell wall and glucose molecules are linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Glycogen</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in animals and glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

All of these sugars are polysaccaride sugars containing large number of glucose subunits.

Starch is a polysaccharide extracted from agricultural raw materials. It contains amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is an un-branched chain polymer of D-glucose units while amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of D-glucose units.

Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals, It is stored in muscles and liver and it is a branched polysaccaride.

Cellulose is the storage form of glucose in plants and leaves.

What can you conclude about red visible light waves compared to blue visible light waves? Blue visible light waves have a lower
Black_prince [1.1K]

The blue visible light waves have a shorter wavelength than the red visible light waves. Since both the waves travel at the speed of light, which is a constant for a particular medium, their frequencies will be inversely related to their wavelength. This is given by the formula: speed = wavelength x frequency. Thus blue visible light will have a higher frequency than the red visible light.

Several molecules are produced as a result of glycolysis.
EastWind [94]
The correct answer is 2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvate. 

Glycolysis will produce 2 NADH (reducing agents) from the 6th reaction involving the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate by the enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. 2 ATP and 2 pyruvate is yielded by the last reaction of glycolysis which is the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate by the enzyme pyruvate kinase.
