Why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby decreasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby increasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby increasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby decreasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils.

If the concentration of phosphate in the cytosol is 2.0 mm and the concentration of phosphate in the surrounding fluid is 0.1 mm, how could the cell increase the concentration of phosphate in the cytosol? a) passive transportb) diffusionc) active transportd) osmosise) facilitated diffusion

Many free radicals combine to form molecules that do not contain any unpaired electrons. the driving force for the radical–radical combination reaction is the formation of a new electron‑pair bond. consider the chemical equation. n(g)+no(g)⟶nno(g) n(g)+no(g)⟶nno(g) write lewis formulas for the reactant and product species in the chemical equation. include nonbonding electrons. n(g)n(g) select draw rings more erase select draw rings more erase select draw rings more erase n no(g)
