What is the difference between a monosaccharide and a disaccharide?

A. Observation, hypothesis, prediction, experimentation, analysis, conclusion.

B. Hypothesis, observation, prediction, experimentation, analysis, conclusion.

C. Prediction, observation, experimentation, analysis, conclusion, hypothesis.

D. Observation, data collection, analysis, experimentation, hypothesis, conclusion.

The scientific method is a systematic approach used to answer questions or test hypotheses about the natural world. The steps involved in the scientific method are:

1. Observation: This is the first step in the scientific method. It involves observing a phenomenon or a problem and gathering information about it.
2. Hypothesis: After making an observation, a scientist forms a hypothesis, which is a tentative explanation for the phenomenon or problem.
3. Prediction: Based on the hypothesis, the scientist makes a prediction about what will happen in an experiment or what they will observe.
4. Experimentation: The scientist designs and conducts an experiment to test the hypothesis and prediction.
5. Analysis: The data collected from the experiment are analyzed to determine if they support or refute the hypothesis.
6. Conclusion: Based on the analysis of the data, the scientist draws a conclusion about whether the hypothesis is supported or refuted.

Option b) is incorrect because it starts with hypothesis before observation. Option c) is incorrect because prediction comes before experimentation. Option d) is incorrect because hypothesis comes after observation and data collection.

A. Parotid, sublingual, and submandibular glands located in the cheeks, tongue, and roof of the mouth, respectively.

B. Sublingual, submandibular, and buccal glands located in the tongue, cheeks, and lips, respectively.

C. Parotid, sublingual, and submandibular glands located in the roof of the mouth, cheeks, and under the jawbone, respectively.

D. Sublingual, parotid, and buccal glands located in the tongue, cheeks, and lips, respectively.

The three major pairs of salivary glands are the parotid glands, sublingual glands, and submandibular glands.

• Parotid glands are located just in front of your ears.
• Sublingual glands are located below either side of your tongue, under the floor of your mouth.
• Submandibular glands are located below your jaw.

A. Density

B. Melting point

C. Boiling point

D. Reactivity with acid

Chemical properties are characteristics of a substance that describe its ability to undergo a chemical change or reaction with another substance.

Reactivity with acid is a chemical property because it describes how a substance will react with an acid to produce a new substance. Density, melting point, and boiling point are physical properties that describe how a substance behaves under certain conditions but do not involve a chemical change or reaction.

A. Movement of substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

B. Movement of substances against a concentration gradient with the help of transport proteins.

C. Movement of water molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration through a selectively permeable membrane.

D. Movement of substances into a cell by engulfing them with the plasma membrane.

Osmosis is the process by which water molecules move across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, in order to equalize the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane. Selectively permeable membranes allow only certain molecules to pass through, while preventing the passage of others.

In osmosis, the movement of water molecules is driven by the concentration gradient of solutes, which cannot pass through the membrane. If one side of the membrane has a higher concentration of solutes than the other, water molecules will move from the side with the lower concentration of solutes to the side with the higher concentration of solutes, in an atempt to dilute the solutes and equalize the concentration on both sides.

Osmosis is important in many biological processes, including the uptake of water by plant roots, the regulation of water balance in animal cells, and the preservation of food by adding salt or sugar to create a hypertonic environment that inhibits bacterial growth.

A. Monosaccharides are composed of two sugar molecules while disaccharides are composed of a single sugar molecule.

B. Monosaccharides are simple sugars that cannot be further broken down into simpler sugars while disaccharides are composed of two simple sugars.

C. Monosaccharides are only found in plants while disaccharides are only found in animals.

D. Monosaccharides are used for energy storage while disaccharides are used for structural purposes.

Carbohydrates are one of the main types of biomolecules and are composed of monomers called monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are simple sugars that cannot be further broken down into simpler sugars. They are usually composed of 3 to 7 carbon atoms and have a general formula of (CH2O)n, where n is a number between 3 and 7. Examples of monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose.

When two monosaccharides are joined together by a glycosidic bond, they form a disaccharide. Disaccharides are composed of two simple sugars and can be broken down into their constituent monosaccharides by hydrolysis. Examples of disaccharides include sucrose, lactose, and maltose.

Option a) is incorrect because it describes the composition of a disaccharide, not a monosaccharide. Option

c) is incorrect because both monosaccharides and disaccharides can be found in both plants and animals.

Option d) is incorrect because both monosaccharides and disaccharides can be used for energy storage and

structural purposes, depending on their specific structure and function in the organism.
