The right answer is B.
Starch is, along with cellulose, the most common polysaccharide in the plant world. It constitutes the essential energy reserves of plants and is a component of the diet of humans. It is part of the group of slow sugars. Its consumption is particularly recommended to those who practice a sport.
Glycogen, which is a polysaccharide, is the form in which carbohydrates are stored in the body (animals and fungi). Glycogen is broken down into glucose molecules when the body needs energy.
Answer: genus, specific epithet.
Explanation:
The first part is the genus, it's always capitalized, while the second half is always in <em>italics </em>
e.g.<em> </em>Homo<em> sapiens </em>
Answer:
Besides storing genetic information, nucleic acids helps in
Understanding diseases
Creation of proteins
Transmission of information
Explanation:
Understanding diseases
Knowledge about the nucleic acids and their mechanism of action helps in understanding the causes of a disease and the possible cure for the disease. A genetic disease is caused when there is a faulty gene, which is made up of nucleic acids, is present in the genome. These genes will make faulty RNA's which will result in the establishment of faulty proteins. Hence, by having understanding about nucleic acids, diseases can be studies and cured.
Creation of proteins
The information from the DNA is coded by the mRNA which is used to make proteins.
Transmission of information
Apart from storing information, the nucleic acids such as the DNA are also involved in the transmission of information.
Answer:
People with the sickle cell mutation in both copies of the HBB gene produce proteins that clump together and lead to changes in the shape and behavior of red blood cells.
