Which of the following best explains the reactions of these enzymes?
A) Amylase aids in the removal of a water molecule to break covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the addition of a water molecule to form covalent bonds.
B) Amylase aids in the addition of a water molecule to break covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the removal of a water molecule to form covalent bonds.
C) Amylase aids in the addition of a water molecule to form covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the removal of a water molecule to break covalent bonds.
D) Amylase aids in the removal of a water molecule to form covalent bonds whereas glycogen synthase aids in the addition of a water molecule to break covalent bonds.
The answer is A
Explanation:
In nature, MONOMERS are simpler units that come together to form larger units called POLYMERS. According to this question, Amylase converts carbohydrate polymers to monomers while Glycogen synthase converts carbohydrate monomers to polymers.
Monomers of carbohydrate are joined together by adding water molecule to form covalent bonds between the monomer units, hence, forming a POLYMER. This is how Glycogen synthase catalyzes its reaction of forming carbohydrate polymer (glycogen).
On the other hand, Amylase breaks down large polymer molecules into monomers by removing water molecules in a process called HYDROLYSIS. This breaks the covalent bond that holds the monomeric units together.
Answer 1:
Brushtail possum is an arboreal and nocturnal organism, occupying a wide range of habitat in Australia living in tree, wood land, forest, sleeping day time while active at night.
Answer 2:
This transport was intentional to establish a fur trade. Therefore, this organism was transported from Australia to New Zealand in 1837.
Answer 3:
This organisn acted as a invasive species. The habitat was suitable for reproduction due to optimum environmental condition.
Answer 4:
Brushtail possum feed on a variety of resources like they eat leaves, fruits, nuts, insects etc thus disturb the food chain. Even food litters and small creatures whatever they found were eaten. So it pose a serious threat to ecosystem. dairy and derr farmers noticed that introduction of possum cause bovine tuberculosis in live stock. Their numbers were increased and natural predators of possum were unable to control their population size.
Answer 5:
Possum play dead game. when they see a large animals like human get paralysed for few minutes to an hour.They also have sharp teeth but no evidence was recorded for hurting humans.
Answer 6:
In order to control population of possum one should aply the procedure of strility or intoduce predators into ecosystem to balance the population of possum.
