Question

question 27
__ is considered short - term energy storage and __ is long - term energy storage in humans.
a glycogen; starch
b starch; fat
c glycogen; fat
d fat; glycogen
e glycogen; sugar
question 28
the process of dna replication that one strand serves as a template for the replication of a new strand is called ____.
a dispersive
b conservative
c semi - conservative
d complementarity

Explanation:

1. For Question 27: Glycogen is a polysaccharide that serves as short - term energy storage in animals including humans. Fat (adipose tissue) is used for long - term energy storage as it can store a large amount of energy per unit mass. Starch is a plant storage molecule, not a human long - term energy storage molecule and sugar is a more general term not equivalent to long - term energy storage.
2. For Question 28: In semi - conservative DNA replication, each strand of the original DNA molecule serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. Dispersive replication would result in DNA molecules with segments of old and new DNA interspersed throughout both strands. Conservative replication would result in one DNA molecule with two old strands and one with two new strands. Complementarity refers to the base - pairing rules in DNA, not the mode of replication.

Answer:

Question 27: C. Glycogen; fat
Question 28: C. semi - conservative
