Amylose is a form of starch made up of α glucose monomers that are bound by 1-4 linkages. How would the molecule be affected if

the subcomponents were joined by 1-6 linkages instead? Explain how this might affect the function of the resulting molecule. (5 points)

Answer:

It would become the same as another of starch component similar glycogen. Amylose as you mentioned have 1-4 bonds but glycogen have 1-6 bonds. Glycogen is more branched and this makes it less soluble in water. also it is used as a storage medium only and it is not easily digested. Just the level of complexity would have increased. solubility would have lessened

A Paramecium has an internal sucrose concentration of 0.040 M, a glucose concentration of 0.035 M, and a fructose concentration
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

<u>c. Sucrose and glucose</u>

Explanation:

The paramecium is a large, single-celled microbes, surrounded by a plasma membrane. Simple diffusion occurs in cells across plasma membranes, as a form of passive transport. In diffusion, solutes move from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration across the plasma membrane.

Here, the internal environment has higher concentrations of sucrose and glucose, but lower concentrations of fructose, thus the solutes will move along their concentration gradient, to where the concentrations are lower. In order for the fructose molecules to move out of the cell, the molecules have to move against their concentration gradient - a process requiring energy known as active transport.
