Proteins and carbohydrates have many functions in the body of an organism. Specific proteins and carbohydrates perform specific

tasks. Information about
a protein and a carbohydrate is given below.

Ferritin

Ferritin is a protein containing Iron, which is

needed by all living things. Iron is found

In hemoglobin and in cytochromes, which

function in metabolism. Free iron can

damage proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.

Glycogen

Glycogen is a carbohydrate that consists of

glucose molecules. It can be hydrolyzed as

glucose as needed by an organism.

How are ferritin and glycogen similar in their primary functions for an organism?

O Both store materials needed by the organism.

Both store energy used by the organism.

Both support the structure of the organism.

O Both store information for the organism.

Answer:

Both store materials needed by the organism.

Explanation:

Proteins and carbohydrates are two biomolecules present in living organisms. They perform varying functions in the body of an organism. According to this question, a specific protein (ferritin) and carbohydrate (glycogen) is described.

Ferritin is a protein molecule containing Iron (Fe). Iron is needed by living organisms as it plays a vital role in organism's metabolism. On the other hand, glycogen is a carbohydrate molecule that is made up of glucose molecules, needed by living organisms.

Based on the description of the two biomolecules provided, they are similar in their primary functions for an organism in the sense that THEY BOTH STORE MATERIALS (glucose and iron) NEEDED BY AN ORGANISM.

If from the low tide to the high tide there was a break of 6h and 4m than the next tides will happen at the same rate:

8:35 + 6:04 = 14:39 = next low tide.
14:39 + 6:04 = 20:43 = next high tide.

Note that two same tides occur about 12h to 12h and 25m apart, and that is the case here:

14:39 - 2:31 = 12:08 hours apart
20:42 - 8:35 = 12:07 hours apart.

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!

finlep [7]

Fragmentation is the breaking of the body into parts and then the organism develops all the parts of the body. The fragmentation is the type of reproduction in lower organisms. The fragments which are produced can develop into new organisms.
