To reduce erosion and to get rid of pesticides on farms
Because they contain less "built-in" water.
Explanation:
When two glucose molecules 'decide' to bond, they lose a molecule of water:
<span>2<span>C6</span><span>H12</span><span>O6</span>→<span>C12</span><span>H22</span><span>O11</span>+<span>H2</span>O</span>
And this happens at every connection between glucose molecules, so in a long chain a lot of water is lost. The water does not contribute anything to the energy content of the compound.
The answer to your question is: The chromosomes are replicated and they are haploid.
