Is a cellulose a chemical?
Yes. It is a polysaccharide (polymer of sugars) created by plants to form their cell walls.
Why doesn't cellulose give a positive iodine test?
cellulose is derived from D-glucose units, which condensed through beta(1->4)-glycosidic bond. This give cellulose to be a straight polymer therefore, it can't coil around iodine to produce blue color as starch does.
What type bond will it be if calcium and selenium bond?
This bond is ionic.
What type of bond is c2h2?
C2H2 is a carbon bond. This particular type of carbon bond is referred to as a triple bond, as it contains two pi bonds and a sigma bond.
What type of bond is C2H4?
covelent bond
What kind of polysaccharide is found in plant walls and most abundant polymer on earth?
Cellulose. Cellulose is a polymer of glucose molecules. It is different from starch or glycogen due to the type of bond between the glucose molecules.
Is cholesterol a type of cellulose?
No. Cholesterol is a steroid alcohol and cellulose is a polysaccharide (a complex sugar).
From which organisms is cellulose obtained?
Any type of plant uses cellulose to support its cell walls.
Cellulose is a major component of the?
Cellulose is a type of polysaccharide (complex carbohydrate).
What is the meaning of microcrystalline cellulose?
Cellulose type II is a form rarely seen in nature consisting of anti-parallel glucan chains. Type I cellulose can be irreversibly converted to type II by treatment under strong alkaline conditions.
What type of bond is present in cellulose?
Glycosidic bonds by a condensation reaction froms a Disaccharide of glucose, however many of those of course makes up the polysaccharide. And cellulose is a polysac.... However, if you want to know how, many of cellulose keep themselves together in groups then the answer would be HYDROGENBONDS.
In which type of bond are electrons?
Electrons are shared in a type of bond known as covalent. This type of bond is also considered a chemical bond.
What is a type of carbohydrate that the body can't digest?
cellulose
Is a cellulose a chemical?
Yes. It is a polysaccharide (polymer of sugars) created by plants to form their cell walls.
What type organisms digest cellulose in the intestinal tract of humans?
None. Humans can't digest cellulose. Bacteria in the large intestine can digest some cellulose, creating gas and vitamin K.
What are the difficulties of cellulose?
it contains beta (1->4) bond, to cleave which, humans dont have proper enzymes. Thus, humans cannot cleave cellulose. Which is actually good, because it cleans your digestive tract.
