Chapter 22, Problem 33E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The bonds in cellulose and starch that can be broken and cannot be broken by enzymes are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Cellulose is a polymer of glucose unit which is present in animal cells. Cellulose is also used as a structural material due to its insolubility in water. Cellulose has very high molecular mass and hydrogen bonding is present within the molecule. Starch is also a polymer of glucose which is the storehouse of energy for plants. Starch exists in two forms amylose and amylopectin.

>What are carbohydrates? What role do they play in living organisms?
Chapter 8- Carbohydrates (pages 221 - 223) 1. What are carbohydrates and what are the three elements that make them up? What is the general formula of carbohydrates? 2. One of the simplest carbohydrate is glyceraldehyde. Glyceraldehyde (number of carbons) carbon sugar. is a 3. Draw the structure of D-glyceraldehyde (Fig. 8-1, page 222) in the space below. 4. Monosaccharides can be aldoses or ketoses, depending on the position of the carbonyl group. Describe aldoses and ketoses: a. Aldoses: H b. Ketoses*: *IMPORTANT NOTE: The most common ketoses have the ketone function at carbon 2. 5. Circle the carbonyl group in the structures below and specify if the structures correspond to an aldose or ketoses. CH₂OH H-C-OH CH₂OH C=O 1 CH₂OH
While working part-time at a lab, Matthew is asked to grab a jar that contains carbohydrates. Two jars are on the counter, each labeled with their chemical formula. One is labeled C5H10O5, and the other is C3H9O3.  Which one is the carbohydrate?  What should Matthew's decision be based upon?  Based on the number of carbons, what group of sugars should this compound be classified as?
