One example of a mutation that could occur in a species that might increase its lifespan is increased bone density. With high bone density, an animal is more likely to survive a heavy hit with no bone damage. This, in turn, means that the animal's vital organs are able to be protected by the bones, meaning the difference between life and death.

Pepsi [2]

Answer: The differences in the assembly and organization of the monomers of these two polymers result in different chemical properties.

Explanation:

Starch and Cellulose flare both polysaccharides which are constructed from the same monomer called glucose. The functions they provide in plants are different which includes the following:

- STARCH is used by plants for energy storage because unlike Cellulose, it's formed from glucose units( oriented in the same direction) connected by alpha linkages which can form compact structures that can easily be broken down.

- Cellulose provides structural support for plant cell wall because unlike Starch, it's formed from glucose units( which rotates 180 degrees around the axis of the polymer backbone chain) connected by beta linkages. This pattern gives Cellulose it's rigid features as is allows for hydrogen bonding between two molecules of Cellulose.

Therefore the statement that best describes why starch and cellulose provide different functions in plants is that (The differences in the assembly and organization of the monomers of these two polymers result in different chemical properties).
