Explain how thermohaline circulation is influenced by salinity and temperature.

Biology
1 answer:
marshall27 [118]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Thermohaline circulation is influenced by changes in density gradients. These density gradients are affected by the salinity and temperature of the ocean’s water. Cold water is denser than warm water and salt water is denser than freshwater. As water cools off, it sinks. As water evaporates, the salt concentration of the remaining water increases because the salt from the evaporated water remains. This causes the water to sink and circulate.

Due to the fact that we possess enzymes that break down the alpha linkages in starch, the glucose molecules that make up amylose
dedylja [7]

The answer is: A. True

Complex sugars or polysaccharides are composed of basic units called monosaccharides that are linked via  glycosidic bonds. Glycosidic bond is formed through condensation reactions (water is released) that occur between a hydroxyl (OH) oxygen atom on one sugar and the α-anomeric form of C-1 on the other. There are are two types of glycosidic bonds:

- 1,4 alpha ( the OH is below the glucose ring)

- 1,4 beta glycosidic bonds (the OH is above the glucose ring)

Amylase is an enzyme that breaks down starch into smaller glucose molecules, it act on α-1,4-glycosidic bonds and it works in mouth where the digestion begins (salivary amylase) . Maltase breaks down maltose into glucose; sucrase, breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose; and lactase, which breaks down lactose into glucose and galactose work in small intestine and also act on α-1,4-glycosidic bonds.
