Answer #1

Ans) The correct answer is "D" i.e Starch

(Plants undergo photosynthesis for the formation of carbohydrate (glucose) from inorganic precursor like carbon dioxide.This glucose is converted to sucrose for the transport from source (where they are produced) to sink (where they are required) and then this sucrose is converted into starch as the storage form of energy.

Chitin is present in the exoskeleton of insects like cockroach,beetles etc.

Cellulose is present in the cell wall of plants and not used as a storage form of energy in plants).

Both, cellulose and starch are composed of many glucose molecules joined together in long chains. A) Indicate what type of biomolecules these are, identify the monomer and the polymer. B) Us, humans, we can digest starch but not cellulose. Why can’t we digest cellulose if it’s composed of glucose just like starch? Explain, making a connection between structure and function of biomolecules.

Sucrose (ΔH°f = –2226.1 kJ/mol), or cane sugar, is a disaccharide of glucose (C6H12O6) and fructose (ΔH°f = –1265.6 kJ/mol). It is extremely abundant in the plant world. Calculate the enthalpy change for the hydrolysis reaction of sucrose in kJ. Sucrose+H2​O(l) --> C6​H12​O6​(s)+Fructose

The hydrolysis of sucrose (C12H22O11) into glucose and fructose in acidic water has a rate constant of 1.8×10−4s−1 at 25 ∘C. Assuming the reaction is first order in sucrose, determine the mass of sucrose that is hydrolyzed when 2.40 L of a 0.180 M sucrose solution is allowed to react for 200 minutes.
