Biology

8 0

Answer:

glycosidic bonds between monosaccharides that combine to form polysaccharides

Explanation:

The building blocks of carbohydrates are individual monosaccharides (i.e., sugar molecules), such as glucose, fructose, glucuronic acid, galactosamine, glucosamine, etc.  These individual monomers of carbohydrates bond to form polysaccharides such as cellulose and starches. Monosaccharides form glycosidic bonds with an alcoholic OH group of a second monosaccharide to form a disaccharide (for example, lactose), and then these larger molecules bond together to form either linear or branched polysaccharides. Starch, for example, is a polysaccharide composed of monomers of glucose molecules.

Which of the following provide the most readily available energy?
emmasim [6.3K]
<span>The answer is a. carbohydrates. The amount of potential energy in the molecule depends on the number of C-H bonds in the molecule. Carbohydrates have more C-H bonds. Thus, they can serve as energy storage. Other macromolecules have less C-H bonds. Thus, when energy is needed immediately, complex carbohydrates break down to simple carbohydrates and the energy is released.</span>

Why an ecosystem requires a constant input of energy
pychu [463]
The ecosystem requires a constant input of energy because energy cannot be stored. The enrgy always gets converted for supporting life in the ecosystem. Some amount of energy is also lost during this conversion. So if there is not a constant supply of energy, then the ecosystem will ultimately breakdown. In case of humans, the energy is received by consuming food. The energy of the food geets converted to the enrgy that helps a human being to complete his daily chores. So energy is being lost at every step. To regain this energy the humans have to eat food regularly. This way the humans need a constant supply of energy to survive. It is the same in the case of all living things in the ecosystem.
