Both starch and cellulose are made by stringing together many glucose molecules. However, while starch is easily digested by humans, cellulose is indigestible. The starch polysaccharide has bonds occurring below the sugar rings, while the bonds in cellulose alternate above the ring and below the next ring. How can you explain humans' inability to digest cellulose?
A. The alternating bonds make the cellulose molecule too large and bulky to enter cells for digestion. B. The acidic molecules found in stomach acid cannot act on the bonds that are above the sugar rings in cellulose. C. Humans do not eat cellulose. D. Cellular respiration is only capable of breaking down specific bonds. E. The enzyme that breaks down starch can only fit the specific bond configuration of bonds below the ring.
Helicases are enzymes that
A) Catalyzes the addition of new nucleotides on 5' -3' strands of DNA. B) Catalizes the sealing together of short stretches of nucleotides in discontinuous strands. C) Catalyses are breaking of hydrogen bonds between base pairs in the DNA molecules. D) Catalyses the rewinding of the two DNA molecules after replication.
