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.

How easy or difficult was it to find an example of each category?
Anvisha [2.4K]
Depending on what resources you use, it can be easy or difficult to get examples of each categories

Some easy way can include searching google, wikipedia, encyclopedia.org, etc. These usually give you a broad and large amount of information that you can draw out of, and an over view that allows you to know what the paragraph would be talking about before you use it. 

Difficult ways would be searching through specific websites, such as national geographics, etc, which gives you specific details on the idea (and is more trusted then the others)

Remember too always get facts, not opinions, unless your question asks for others opinions, and to look for what researchers or well-known people within that topic says, and to not get any information from "who-knows-who-typed-it" websites, such as ask.com, etc.


hope this helps

How does a bacteria’s resistance to an antibiotic first arise? a.) vaccines b.) through mutation c.) bacteria learns to be resis
MakcuM [25]

<u>Answer</u>: option B through mutation

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Antibiotic resistance is the phenomena in which the bacteria becomes reistance to a given antibiotic and is no longer killed or harmed by it.
  • Bacteria unlike humand divide rapidly and increase in large number. However, each time it divides it has to replicate its genetic material. In the process of replication there is always a chance of introducing an error which is called as a <em>mutation</em>.
  • The mutation that occurs in a bacteria can either ber advantageous or disadvantageous. However, amongst the various type of mutations that arise in the bacteria if a particular mutation is conferring resistance to an antibiotic then in such case the bacteris gets selected by natural selection.
  • The bacteria having acquired thr resistance is then able to produce more of its progenies with the same antibiotic resistance and thus, this is how the resistance gets propagated.

So, firstly the <em>mutation</em> is the one which gives rise to the resistance which is then spread among the bacterial population by the process of reproduction as well horizontal gene transfer.

lions [1.4K]
I think the correct answer would be the third option. Environmental influences include family dynamics, neighborhood quality, and educational opportunities. These influences involve everything that surrounds an individual. The environment one is subjected to greatly affects the totality of that person may it be psychological, social, physical, behavior or attitude, beliefs and perception. For instance, if a child grow up in an environment that is healthy where relationships are nurtured and love and respect is present between members, then most likely this child would grow with great self esteem and would have the same characteristics as the people he lived with.
