Question
glycogen is
- a transport protein that carries oxygen
- a polysaccharide found in animals
- a source of saturated fat
- the form in which plants store sugars
- a polysaccharide found in plant cell walls
part b
glucose + glucose → __ by __
- maltose + water... dehydration synthesis
- cellulose + water... hydrolysis
- sucrose + water... dehydration synthesis
- lactose + water... hydrolysis
- starch + water... dehydration synthesis
part c
which of these is a source of lactose?
- starch
- sugar beets
- sugar cane
- potatoes
- milk
Brief Explanations
- Part A: Glycogen is a polysaccharide found in animals that stores glucose. It is not a transport protein, a source of saturated fat, nor a plant - storage or cell - wall polysaccharide.
- Part B: When two glucose molecules combine, they form maltose and water through dehydration synthesis. Hydrolysis is the reverse process. Other options have incorrect products or processes for glucose combination.
- Part C: Lactose is a disaccharide found in milk. Starch is a plant polysaccharide, and sugar beets, sugar cane, and potatoes are sources of other sugars like sucrose or starch, not lactose.
