Amylopectin is made up of many 1,4 linked alpha glucose molecules (not beta glucose) and it has branches formed by 1,6 linkages. Glycogen is similar to amylopectin in the sense that it is also made of 1,4 linked alpha glucose with 1,6 linkages forming branches...However, glycogen molecules tend to be more branched than amylopectin molecules. Hence, statements 1 and 3 are correct.

C. Male bees are haploid so they cannot be genetically identical as that occurs only in mitosis. Statement 2 has to do with asexual reproduction. Statement 3 is also correct as meiosis allows genetic variation

Question 26: it is B because the sucrose is loaded in the sieve tube elements in leaf as a result water potential decreases. In order to build up a hydrostatic pressure sugars are moved out .. as a result the food moves from the leaf to the roots in a mass flow manner.

i thnk da ans 2 12 is D... :) cux all da rest of da options r basically wrong... condensation is a anabolic process triglycerides r more energy value... n so on :)
correct me if i m wrong...! :)

Yes it is BUT that is not the reason. Babies require a gradual release of energy because their body's circulation system can not cope with large amounts of energy at the same time.

The answer to 24 is D. Convert all tRNA anticodons to mRNA codons and check which of them is not present from the list given above.
