A.
To find: How many carbon atoms are there in the book.
Concept introduction:
Polysaccharides are
B.
To find: How many carbon atoms in cellulose would be stacked on top of each other to span the thickness of the page.
Concept introduction:
Polysaccharides are polymeric carbohydrate molecules that are composed of long chains of monosaccharide subunits linked together by glyosidic linkages. These polysaccharides, upon hydrolysis, dissociate into respective monosaccharides or oligosaccharides. Cellulose is a type of polysaccharide that is an abundant organic polymer on earth. It is made up of D-glucose monomeric subunits linked together by β (1→4) bonds.

She recently returned from a trip to sub-Saharan Africa, where she did not take malaria prophylaxis. On examination, she is febrile (39.8°C/103.6°F) and hypotensive. Laboratory studies reveal hemoglobin of 8.0 g/dL, platelet count of 50,000/μL, and evidence of hemoglobinuria. A peripheral blood smear shows ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes. Which of the following Plasmodium species is most likely responsible for her severe symptoms? A. Plasmodium vivax B. Plasmodium ovale C. Plasmodium malariae D. Plasmodium falciparumarrow_forward
