A compound isolated from a biological source is subjected to chemical analysis. It contains carbon and oxygen in roughly equal a

mounts and hydrogen in an amount that is almost twice that of carbon. This compound does not take up iodine stain very well, indicating that its structure is densely packed and resistant to large molecules binding to it through noncovalent interactions. What is the likely identity of this compound?a. Monosaccharideb. Glycogenc. Starchd. Triglyceride

Answer:B (glycogen)

Explanation:

Starch is in the form of amylose and amylopectin has less branches than glycogen. Glycogen is more branched and more compact than amylopectin of starch. glycogen is composed of glucose units joined by alpha-1,4 links in the straight chain and alpha-1, 6 glcosidic linkages at the branch point. Iodine atoms can bind into the helices of starch and glycogen to form a starch-iodine or glycogen-iodine complex respectively. The helices of starch are longer than glycogen, and therefore can bind more iodine atoms. The is the reason why color produced by a starch-iodine complex(blue black) is more intense than that obtained with a glycogen-iodine complex.

Which statement below describes a feature that is shared between kinesin and dynein? a. Both proteins "walk" towards the (+) end
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

C)Both proteins bind ATP and F-actin

*C option is not mentioned* there is a flaw in the question

Explanation:

Two families of motor proteins, kinesin and dynein, transport membrane-bounded vesicles, proteins, and organelles along microtubules. Nearly all kinesins move cargo toward the (+) end of microtubules (anterograde transport), whereas dyneins transport cargo toward the (−) end (retrograde transport).While

both the protiens have globular ATP-binding heads that function as the motor domain and interact with the microtubules.
