Answer:
Energy stored in plants is transferred to humans and animals that eat them
Explanation:
Answer:
Proteins and polysaccharides.
Explanation:
Proteoglycans are heavily glycosylated proteins. These proteoglycans are present in the extracellular matrix of the animal cells and acts as a lubricant for the cells.
Proteoglycans are proteins that are covalently bonded with muco polysaccharidse. Proteoglycans are formed by the bonding between proteins and carbohydrates ( polysaccharides). Proteoglycans can combine with collagen to form cartilage and may affect the stability of a protein.
Thus, the correct answer is option (E).
Answer:b
Explanation:some seeds do not germinate during adverse conditions.this is called dormancy.this may occur due to hard seed coat.this seed coat prevents the entry of water and oxygen which are necessary for the plant to grow and germinate.
Water is a nessesary medium for essential metabolic reactions in the seed.the temperature at which is seed would germinate also varies.
Oxygen is needed for a germinating plant to obtain energy through respiration. The seed coat may also be so tough that they resist growth and expansion from taking place.
Seeds are able to break dormancy on their own.some may need to undergo natural processes that lead to softening.this process may be slow.some others may need heat or certain nutrients.
Germination of seed occurs when the dormant plant has taken in water and oxygen to show high metabolic activities leading to the formation of a seedling.
Mutation can cause instant adaptation while natural selection is the process by which adaptation occurs over a series of generations.
