Question
Chapter 24, Problem 50A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The product that forms when cellulose breaks down is to be stated.
Concept introduction: The most important polysaccharide that plants need for their structural functions is cellulose. Polysaccharides can be broken down into their individual monosaccharide units by hydrolysis.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 50A
Glucose is produced as a product when cellulose molecules break down.
Explanation of Solution
Cellulose may be used as a source of energy by a wide variety of organisms, such as bacteria and some types of invertebrate animals. It must first be broken down into molecules that are water-soluble before any of these organisms will be able to make use of it. By hydrolysis, cellulose breaks down into the sugar molecule glucose.
Conclusion
Glucose is produced as a product when cellulose molecules break down.
