Explanation:
Organic polymers are macromolecules composed of many repeating monomer units. Both synthetic and natural polymers play a crucial role in everyday life. Polysaccharides, polypeptides, and polynucleotides are the main types of biopolymers in living cells.
Answer:
b. A transferase deficiency will result in an accumulation of the toxic metabolite galactosse 1-phosphate.
c. A galactokinase deficiency will cause an accumulation of galactose.
Explanation:
Transferase is an enzyme which is responsible for the breakdown of galactose which is a known milk sugar. Its deficiency causes the formation of toxic materials such as galactose-1-phosphate which comes from galactose, and galactitol. Galactokinase is also an enzyme which helps in the conversion of galactose into galactose 1-phosphate with the expenditure of ATP molecule, so its deficiency causes the deposition of galactose.
