Food chain is a hierarchical series of organism each dependent on the next as a source of food while a food web is a system of interlocking and interpendent food chains. on the other hand, energy pyramid as a graphical model of energy flow in a community.
Starch is a polymer composed of glucose units as monomers. Hydrolysis reaction can break down large molecules into smaller ones.
- Hydrolysis is a type of chemical reaction in which a water (H2O) molecule is used to break down large molecules into smaller ones.
- Starch is a complex polysaccharide composed of more than six (6) glucose molecules linked by alpha-glycosidic bonds.
- Glycosidic bonds can be hydrolyzed by specific enzymes known as glycosidases.
- A starch molecule composed of 300 glucose molecules contains 299 alpha-glycosidic bonds.
- In consequence, in this case, 299 water (H2O) molecules are required to completely hydrolyze the amylose starch polymer into glucose monomers.
