Why cellulose is insoluble in water What is the difference between free and dissolved carbon dioxide? Why is carbon dioxide considered a greenhouse gas? Why are some alcohols soluble in water? Why does carbon tetrachloride not dissolve in water? Why are there so many alveoli in the lungs? Why...
afirstly endoglucanases (EC 3.2.1.4) which act randomly on soluble and insoluble cellulose chains; secondly exoglucanases (cellobio-hydrolases EC 3.2.1.91) that act to liberate cellobiose from the reducing and non-reducing ends of cellulose chains and finally, b-glucosidases (EC 3.2.1.21) which...
Why can't an enzyme that hydrolyzes starch degrade cellulose? Why is an enzyme considered a catalyst? Give two characteristics of catalysts. What is an active site? What is a substrate? What is a product? Describe how enzymes facilitate chemical reactions. Make a drawing or describe an enzyme...
The key to the seed's survival is the waxy, yellow outer coating that protects the genetic material from weather, pests and transport. The fact that it's hard to break down is actually ideal for the plant. The outer coating owes its resilience to a tough fiber called cellulose, which ...
The intake of synthetic emulsifiers, likepolysorbate 80 (P80)and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), may increase risk of metabolic syndrome, a coupling of common obese-related disorders including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and liver disease. ...
Pure cotton and other cellulose fibers are usually dyed with direct dyes, acid dyes and other anionic water-soluble dyes, such as complete color spectrum, bright color. However, since the dye has a water-soluble group in its structure, the dye is hydrophilic, and when washed, the color on...
Structural biomass Structural components of plant tissues (cellulose, lignin, cell membrane lipids, structural proteins, nucleic acids, etc.) Nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC) Insoluble polymers (e.g. starch, fructans) or soluble oligomers (hexoses, sucrose, sugar-alcohols, etc.) that are used as ...

Why is glycogen insoluble? What is the mechanism in which the enzyme alpha amylase digests starch? Why can't acetyl CoA make glucose? How are carbohydrates, fats, and proteins digested through the GI tract? Why will salivary amylase not break down proteins? Why is cellulose considered to be...
