Answer:

b) glucose molecules are joined in long branched chains to make glycogen that allows for long term energy storage in animals

Explanation:

Glucose is a monosaccharide which is used for instant source of energy. Whenever there is excess glucose in the body, it is stored in the body for future use in the form of glycogen molecules. Glycogen is a long branched chain polysaccharide which is formed by joining the monomeric glucose units through glycosidic linkage. Glycogen has α--1,4 & α--1,6 glycosidic linkage.

Option A is somewhat correct but the reason for not choosing option A is because starch exists in 2 forms which are amylose and amylopectin. Although amylose is helical and unbranched yet amylopectin is a branched polymer. In the option it is not given anywhere that starch is a branched polymer.

Use the cladogram to explain why you think modern whales have very small but useless pelvic bones. 3.
aev [14]

Modern day whale species, have very small pelvic bones in comparison to their body size, and also they are useless. This is because this bones in the whale body are remnants from the time when their ancestors were land dwelling creatures, thus they had legs as the typical land mammal has. But during their evolution, as their ancestors were starting to adapt more to the water, the legs started to disappear, but the bones inside of the body remained, even though they were of not use. Even though millions of years had passed since this bone is useless, it still exists, and the reason for that is that there hasn't been any evolutionary pressure for it to not exist, since it is not causing any disadvantage into the movement and lifestyle of the whales.
