Is polysaccharides a protein?
no. they are carbohydrates
What is C Reactive protein?
i think c stands for carbohydrate, pneumococcal cellwall polysaccharides.
What is an amyloid?
An amyloid is a waxy compound of protein and polysaccharides which is found deposited in tissues in amyloidosis.
Is a polysaccharide a protein?
No, a polysaccharide is not a protein. Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates made up of multiple sugar molecules, while proteins are made up of amino acids.
What colour does iodine become when a protein solution is added?
Iodine turns blue-black when added to a protein solution such as starch. This color change indicates the presence of complex polysaccharides like glycogen or amylose.
What polysaccharides is used for structure in plants?
It is simply the cell wall. It is made of cellulose, other polysaccharides, and protein.
Is albumin a polysaccharides?
No, albumin is not a polysaccharide. Albumin is a type of protein found in blood plasma that helps regulate osmotic pressure and transport molecules. Polysaccharides, on the other hand, are complex carbohydrates made up of multiple sugar molecules bonded together.
What are the three kinds of carbohydrates?
The three classes of carbohydrates are monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides. Monosaccharaides are simple sugars such as glucose and fructose. Disaccharides are sugars such as sucrose and maltose and polysaccharides are sugars such as starch and cellulose.
Is polysaccharides a portein?
No. Polysaccharides are carbohydrates.
Why cant proteins and polysaccharides diffuse through the membrane like water does?
Proteins and polysaccharides are too large to pass through the hydrophobic lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Water, being a small molecule, can easily pass through the membrane via simple diffusion. Proteins and polysaccharides typically require specialized transport mechanisms, such as channels or carrier proteins, to facilitate their movement across the membrane.
What ways are protein molecules similar to polysaccharides?
Both protein molecules and polysaccharides are large macromolecules made up of repeating subunits. Proteins are composed of amino acids while polysaccharides are composed of sugar monomers. They both play important roles in biological functions and structure within living organisms.
What are the subunits polysaccharides?
The subunits of Polysaccharides are monosaccharides
