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

Explanation:

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.

Answer:

  • Part A: a polysaccharide found in animals
  • Part B: maltose + water ... dehydration synthesis
  • Part C: milk
