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.

Under normal conditions, the tubular load of glucose (the amount/min that filters into the kidney tubules) is approximately 125
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

0mg/min

Explanation:

Glycosuria is a disorder in which glucose is excreted in the urine despite its normal or low blood concentration.

Urine contains very small amounts of glucose, as the proximal bypassed tubule reabsorbs virtually all of the glucose, but if the patient has hyperglycemia that exceeds the renal reabsorption threshold (160 to 180 mg / min), there will be glycosuria.  For this reason, we can conclude that if a person has a tubular glucose load equal to 125 mg / min. The amount of glucose in the urine will be approximately 0mg / min.
