Answer: 19 water molecules

Explanation:

Polymerization refers to the process where individual monomers link together to form a polymer—for example, ethene polymerizing into polyethylene.

In the case of 20 cellulose monomers joining, 19 water molecules are released.

This occurs because the bond forms between the -OH group of one monomer and the hydrogen atom of another.

Therefore, for 20 monomers, 19 molecules of water are produced.

Why was the Euglena green in color? What is the name of the specialized body structure that is located at the base of the tail?
garik1379 [626]

Euglena presenta un color verde gracias al clorofila que se encuentra en los cloroplastos de este organismo, y la estructura corporal situada en su base se llama flagelo.

Explanation:

Las Euglenas son especies que habitan en aguas dulces y saladas, y se encuentran en gran cantidad en cuerpos de agua interiores, donde pueden proliferar y teñir la superficie del agua de zanjas y estanques de un color verde.

Este color verde que producen se debe en gran parte a la clorofila que se halla en sus cloroplastos, la cual es el pigmento responsable del color verde. Este pigmento también es el causante de la coloración en este caso.

Las Euglenas cuentan con una estructura corporal especializada, ubicada en la base de su cola, que les permite moverse.

Esta estructura especializada se denomina flagelo.

Mike wants to increase his monounsaturated fat intake. Which meal has the highest amount of monounsaturated fat?
vlada-n [749]

Answer:

b. baked potato with butter, grilled chicken, and creamed asparagus

Explanation:

Although other meals contain monounsaturated fats, option B has the highest concentration. Excess fats can be detrimental to our health, leading to cardiovascular issues due to hypercholesterolemia which can cause atheromas in blood vessel walls. However, it's been found that the healthier fats include both polyunsaturated and monounsaturated types, present in vegetables, animal products, unrefined oils, fruits, and nuts.

The method of food preparation plays a crucial role; heating and frying fats or oils can alter their structural and molecular composition, shifting the locations of bonds, leading to the creation of trans fats (which can also be artificially produced in some food items). Trans fats are highly harmful to health, as exemplified by option C, which contains a significant amount of trans fat.

Por qué las plantas de regiones lluviosas tienen en sus hojas abundantes estomas?
garik1379 [626]

Cuando el agua es abundante (no limita), las plantas tienen la capacidad de poseer más estomas, lo que aumenta el acceso al agua (y a los iones de hidrógeno necesarios) y proporciona un mejor soporte a los tejidos herbáceos.

Espero que esta respuesta sea correcta :)
