Cellulose is a condensation polymer that has a long polymer made from glucose, the major product of photosynthesis in plants. So it will be a good material to build petrochemical. :)

What is a cellulosic feedstock?
"Cellulosic" means that the material contains cellulose. Cellulose is found in wood, paper, grass and other plant matter. If it is used as a starting point for producing something, such as ethanol, that would make it a feedstock.
Where would you look to find cellulose?
Celllulose is stored in the cell wall of the plant
What is the polysaccharides in the cell walls of plants?
A common polysaccharide found in plants would be starch. Starch is made up of roughly 20% amylose and 80% amylopectin which both have a very similar structure except amylopectin is made up of much larger molecules. It is the energy storage system like batteries. Another very common polysaccharide is cellulose. This is the main structural material. All of these molecules are made up of glucose molecules bonded together. In starch the bonds are alpha while in cellulose beta. This sort of means right handed for starch and left handed for cellulose.
What molecule would not be found in an animal plasma membrane?
mRNA
A jar placed in a sunny window will get warmest if it is wrapped loosely in?
A dark material that will absorb, and then transfer, the subsequent heat build-up of the material. Black material, such as cotton, would work excellently.
What is a complex carbohyrate that strengthens plant stems and roots?
Cellulose and starch are used by plants for building material with starch also serving as a storage molecule that can be converted to glucose for energy.

If you wanted to build a wall 2 m long 2 m high and 20 cm wide how many Kgs of material would you need?
You would need 0.8 cubic metres of material. The mass of this material would depend on the density of the material being used.
Why would they build a motte and baily out of wood?
Wood was a material easily available and easily worked.
