Answer:

i) Glucose

ii) β(1-4) glycosidic bonds.

iii) Oxygen

Explanation:

Cellulose is an important structural carbohydrate found in plants. It forms a major component of the plant cell wall.

Cellulose is a polysaccharide formed by monomers of glucose.  These glucose monomers are joined together by covalent bonds called β(1-4) glycosidic bonds, which means that the 1st carbon of one glucose is bound to the 4th carbon of the next glucose. To make this arrangement,  every other glucose molecule in cellulose is inverted, which you can see in the diagram.

Glucose monomers contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen only. If you look at the pattern of the molecule (remembering every second glucose is inverted), you can see that Z must be O.

The functional group denoted by Z is oxygen. The OH groups on the glucose from one cellulose chain form hydrogen bonds with oxygen atoms on the same or on another chain, holding the chains firmly together and forming very strong molecules - giving cellulose its strength.

Describe the factors that affect saturation of water and the relative humidity in air
joja [24]

Answer: is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapor to the equilibrium vapor pressure of water at a given temperature. Relative humidity depends on temperature and the pressure of the system of interest. The same amount of water vapor results in higher relative humidity in cool air than warm air. A related parameter is the dew point.

The hindbrain consists of the ____. a. thalamus and hypothalamus b. tectum, tegmentum, and reticular formation c. medulla, pons,
slavikrds [6]

The hindbrain consists of the medulla, the pons, and the cerebellum.

<h3>The hindbrain</h3>

The hindbrain is the portion of the brain that is otherwise known as the rhombencephalon. It is the part of the brain that is located towards the lower back.

The hindbrain consists of 3 main parts:

  1. The medulla oblongata
  2. The pons
  3. The cerebellum

Each component has specific functions they perform. The medulla oblongata is located at the extreme end where the brain connects with the spinal cord. It controls activities such as heartbeat, blood pressure, and respiration.

The pons of the hindbrain work hand in hand with the medullar oblongata for effective breathing. In addition, it is the part of the brain that controls the circadian rhythm of the body.

The cerebellum helps the body to maintain postural balance and adjustments when necessary.
