What are ergastic substance of plants?
ergastic substances are waste products of cellular activities. They can be carbs, cellulose, starch, etc...
How does volvox dispose of waste?
Vorticella produces cellular wastes that are diffused out of the cells. These have cell walls of cellulose outside the plasma membrane and diffusion is its way to get rid of wastes.
What monomer does cellulose have?
cellulose is a polymer. it a chain of repeating monomers. the monomer for cellulose is glucose. cellulose is a polymer. it a chain of repeating monomers. the monomer for cellulose is glucose.
What substance make cell walls strong?
cellulose is the strong substance that makes up cell walls.
What gives plant cell wall's their rigidity?
The cellulose molecules

Why does metamucil relieve constipation?
contains cellulose that draws water from intestinal cells and keeps solids waste moist.
What has the author Charles J Brine written?
Charles J. Brine has written: 'Utilization of chitin, a cellulose derivative from crab and shrimp waste' -- subject(s): Chitin, Waste minimization, Shellfish fisheries
What are nonpetrochemical synthetic fibes?
Most non-petrochemical synthetics are variants of Rayon. Rayon is made of cellulose, and can be made from nearly any source. It has been made of waste wood fibers, beech wood, bamboo, and other cellulose sources.
Why do you have feces?
Feces is a product of the inability to digest certain types of food. Due to the diversity of organic nutrients and structure, it is impossible for an organism to break apart every type of nutrient encountered. One example is cellulose ("fiber"), which is a carbohydrate. Cellulose is found in the cell walls of vegetables. A human digestive system cannot hydrolyze cellulose (certain prokaryotes can), and the cellulose is passed through the alimentary canal as waste/feces.
Is cereal better for you than cardbord?
Yes, since humans can't digest cellulose, most the cardboard would simply pass through as waste.
Is cellulose a carbohydrate?
Cellulose is a carbohydrate.
What has the author Myoung-ku Lee written?
Myoung-ku Lee has written: 'New approaches for analyzing white pitch deposits and grafting of synthetic polymers onto cellulose derivatives' -- subject(s): Waste paper, Chemistry, Recycling, Papermaking, Cellulose, Wood
What does hydrolysis produce in cellulose?
Sugars, fiber and waste. Not a lot of stuff, and none a human body needs to live.
How does volvox dispose of waste?
Vorticella produces cellular wastes that are diffused out of the cells. These have cell walls of cellulose outside the plasma membrane and diffusion is its way to get rid of wastes.
Why cellulose is an important part of human diet?
The importance of cellulose in a diet is to aid in digestion. Even though cellulose cannot be broken down completely by humans it is used as dietary fiber which is needed for proper digestion.
What is a cellulose sponge made of?
A cellulose sponge is made of, well, cellulose. Cellulose is the main component of plant cell walls, so many plant derived products are cellulose based. Wood is about 50% cellulose, paper and cardboard are almost entirely cellulose, and most plant fibers are mostly cellulose- cotton is about 90% cellulose. the wikipedia article is decent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose
