Which of the following statements is TRUE about competition between organisms with the same needs when resources are limited?

Biology
1 answer:
netineya [11]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

animals are the only organisms that compete for resources

Explanation:

this is due to the fact that plants take up resources passively, a method which doesn't require them to waste any energy, however in the case of resources, is not very effective. suppose there was a bit of water scarcity in your area, and a plant and you both need water for survival. obviously, the plant cant possibly do anything to receive these resources, as it is just a plant. its survival is based merely on the chance that you pour water into it. this is not the case for animals, which, like us, actively collect and gather resources, and use them to our advantage.  therefore, animals are the only animals that compete for resources

In what ways are cellulose and starch similar to each other and in what ways are they different? Be specific in your comparison,
Tom [10]
By starch, I'm assuming you mean glycogen, or animal starch.
Similarities:
Both are polysaccharide molecules made from glucose molecules linked together in a long chain.
Both are storehouses of energy.

Differences:
Glycogen is made in animal cells and is the only form of starch animals can digest (unless they have certain microbes in their intestinal tracts to break down cellulose, which all herbivores need).
Cellulose is made in plant cells.

The bonds are a bit different; the molecules are isomers. Glycogen bonds with what is called an alpha 1,4 bond, meaning that the first carbon of one glucose molecule is bonded to the 4th carbon of the next glucose molecule, but in a way that puts the bonds in a shape that falls below the plane of the molecule, and allows branching.

Cellulose bonds with beta 1,4 bonds. The first and fourth carbons of adjoining glucose molecules are still connected, but the shape of the bond falls above the plane of the molecule and does not branch.

Since enzymes are specific to their substrates, the enzymes shaped to fit glycogen bonds do not fit on cellulose bonds, which is why animals cannot digest cellulose on their own. In herbivores, there are microbes in their digestive tracts which can produce enzymes to break these bonds so the glucose can be used. In carnivores and omnivores like humans, there is no enzyme to break down cellulose so it becomes 'roughage' in our diets. It passes through the digestive tract without being broken down.
