Answer:

Isotonic Solution

Explanation:

There are commonly three types of solutions:

  • Hypertonic solution = the concentration of solute is greater than in the cell
  • Hypotonic solution = the concentration of solute is less than in the cell
  • Isotonic solution= the concentration of solution and cell is same.

So, if the cell was in any other solution, it would have been burst or it would shrink. but nothing changed because it was in a solution where outside environment is similar to the internal environment

Cellulose belongs to carbohydrates.  

Cellulose is classified as a carbohydrate, a polysaccharide, as they are formed of the glucose monomers chain. It is the prime component in the walls of the cells of plants, assisting the plants to remain upright and stiff. Humans cannot digest cellulose due to the absence of cellulase, however, it is essential in the diet as fiber.  

However, the animals like sheep, cows, and horses can digest cellulose that is why they can acquire nutrients and energy they require from the grass.

Answer:

A . proteins can take a variety of shapes, and nucleic acids tend to form linear chains

Explanation:

Proteins are consist of 50 and 2000 amino acid long and can take variety of shapes in living organisms. Two types of proteins that found in living cells are globular proteins and fibrous proteins and they have different shapes. Example of  globular protein is hemoglobin and fibrous proteins are hair and nails, and collagen.

Nucleic acids  tend to form linear chains from the monomers called nucleotides. Nucleotides have three components:  nitrogenous base. phosphate group, and pentose sugar (5-carbon sugar) that together forms a definite linear shape. It is found in DNA of living organisms.

Hence, the correct option is "A . proteins can take a variety of shapes, and nucleic acids tend to form linear chains".
