Answer:

Structurally, proteins are different from carbohydrates because all proteins contain nitrogen (option C).

Explanation:

The basis of the chemical composition of proteins is carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, so all proteins have nitrogen in their structure. Some proteins also possess phosphorus and sulfur atoms, among others.

Proteins are biomolecules formed by the union of multiple amino acids through carboxyl-amino bonds, called petidic bonds. Their content of nitrogen and other atoms in their structure is what makes them different from carbohydrates.

The other options are not possible because:

  • <em>Only some proteins contain </em><u><em>iron</em></u><em> in their composition.</em>
  • <u><em>Potassium and helium</em></u><em> are not part of the protein structure. </em>

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

c. lack the enzyme needed to break down cellulose

Explanation:

Starch is the form of carbohydrate which is taken through food by humans and animals and digested by them. Amylase is the enzyme that is used to digest starch in them.  

Wood is made up of cellulose and the enzyme which is used to digest cellulose is cellulase. Humans and animals do not have cellulase enzymes therefore they are not able to digest and breakdown cellulose.

Therefore as humans and animals lack enzymes needed to digest cellulose they can not digest wood.
