Carbohydrates are sugars that come in 2 main forms-simple and complex. This is also referred to as simple sugars and starches. The difference between a simple and a complex carb is is in how quickly it is digested and absorbed-as well as it's chemical structure.

Which describes the complex carbohydrate cellulose?
FromTheMoon [43]
Like starch, cellulose is a complex carbohydrate made up of many molecules of glucose linked together. But unlike starch, plants do not use cellulose to store energy. Instead, plants use cellulose as a structural molecule. It forms the cell wall that gives plant cells shape and support.

6. Which of the following is the DNA sequence that a restriction enzyme binds to?
Papessa [141]

Answer: A

Explanation:

They recognize and bind to specific sequences of DNA, called restriction sites. Each restriction enzyme recognizes just one or a few restriction sites. When it finds its target sequence, a restriction enzyme will make a double-stranded cut in the DNA molecule.

 (Also I think you meant Restriction sites, not Recognition sites.)

What is the indented region of the sarcolemma that participates in the neuromuscular junction called?.
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Motor end plate  is the indented region of the sarcolemma that participates in the neuromuscular junction.

The extensive spectrum of illnesses that affect the peripheral nervous system, which is made up of all the motor and sensory nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body, includes neuromuscular disorders. These illnesses are characterized mostly by progressive muscular weakening.

A gene mutation or an inherited condition can both result in neuromuscular disorders; immune system issues can also contribute to several of these conditions.

One of the most debilitating conditions that impact nerve system and muscle function is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which results in the gradual degradation of nerve cells in the spinal cord and brain. No senses are impacted with ALS (such as seeing or hearing). In most cases, it has little impact on mental capabilities. It's not spreadable. There isn't a treatment for this illness as of now.
