Explain question 5. Show work how to do it
5. Oligosaccharides structures cover surfaces of cells serving the purpose of recognition by other cells, but also as entryway for bacterial and viral pathogens. These processes use highly specific recognition enabled by a high diversity of structures generated from the available monosaccharide building blocks. Using glucose and mannose only (shown below), how many disaccharide structures can be formed? Please, disregard the possibility of -and-configurations at the reducing end only. d A. 128 B. 2 C. 5 D. 64 E. 18 HO HO OH OH One of the available forms of glucose OH OH HO Siz HO HO. One of the available forms of mannose OH 6. Despite the fact that amylose and cellulose are both polymers of glucose, they are polar opposites in terms of their three-dimensional structure, their function in biology and applications. Choose a FALSE statement. A. Cellulose is a linear polymer of -1,4-linked glucose. B. Amylose is a linear polym of -1,4-linked glucose. A C. Cellulose can be readily detected by an intense a dark-blue color it gives by treatment with iodine.
