Two main functions of polysaccharides in living things are:
1. structural components
2. energy storage.
Those polysaccharides that are not easily broken down are used as structural components. Some of them are cellulose in plants and chitin in insects and crustacean.
On the other hand, starch and glycogen are easily broken down, so they serve as energy storage. <span>When energy is needed immediately, they break down to glucose and great amount of energy is released, </span>

If a female cat with orange fur (XOXO) is crossed with a male cat with black fur (XoY) then:
P: XOXO x XoY
F1: XOXo XOY XOXo XOY
This means that half of the offspring will be females with tortoiseshell color (XOXo) and other half of the offspring will be males with orange fur (XOY).
<span>It is usually the + strand and the - strand. It can be quite a bit more complicated.</span>
Depolarization is initiated when there is an influx of sodium inside the cell as opposed to repolarization, where potassium exits the cell (occurring after Na+ gates close). Remember that for every 3 Na+ in, there is 2 K+ out. This imbalance helps to stabilize the membrane.
Answer:
The correct answer would be - functions.

In contrast, muscle cells have different structures as they need a high amount of energy to make movements and therefore have lots of mitochondria in the cell.
