Answer:

Starch and glycogen are the polymers of glucose.

Explanation:

Starch is a polysaccharides made upof glucose units. Starch consists of amylopectin and amylose . Amylose consists of linear chain of glucose molecule linked through ∝-1,4 glycosidic bonds whereas amylopectin also contains branched chain structure with ∝1,6 glycosidic bonds and ∝-1,4 glycosidic bonds (linear). Starch is present in plants.

Glycogen is a polysaccharides contains large number of glucose molecules. The structure of glycogen and amylopectin is quite similar. Glycogen contains both ∝-1,4 (linear) and ∝1,6 (branched chain) glycosidic linkages. Glycogen is present in animals.

lana [24]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Mitochondria in eukaryotes are believed to have evolved from a symbiotic relationship between protists and prokaryotes. It is proposed that maybe it evolved from protists engulfing prokaryotes as ‘food’. The evidence is due to the fact that mitochondria have their DNA that encodes for about 13 proteins used within the organelle. MtDNA is circular in shape which is very similar to the structure of prokaryotic DNA.

Inga [223]

Answer: Option 4.

The fresh water is hypotonic and the salt solution is Hypertonic.

Explanation:

Hypotonic solution is a solution that have little dissolved solutes i.e low osmotic pressure compare to other solution. When a cell is put in hypotonic solution, it take in water and the cell swell up and it does not burst due to it's cell wall thereby becoming turgid or hard.

Hypertonic solution is the solution where the concentration of solute is higher outside the cell than inside the cell. Example is saline water.when a cell is placed in Hypertonic solution it will shrinks because it losses water.
