Mammals do not produce digestive enzyme B. However, sheep and cattle are two types of mammals that contain microorganisms in their digestive tract that produce enzyme B. Based the information provided, which of the following statements best describes why starch and cellulose provide different functions in plants? The differences in the assembly and organization of the monomers of these two polymers result in different chemical properties. A Since starch and cellulose are composed of identical monomers, the cellular environment where they are located controls their function. B The monomers of cellulose are connected by covalent bonds, making it idea for structural support. C The monomers of starch are connected by ionic bonds, making it ideal for energy storage for plants.

The differences in the assembly and organization of the monomers of these two polymers result in different chemical properties.

Explanation:

Starch and Cellulose flare both polysaccharides which are constructed from the same monomer called glucose. The functions they provide in plants are different which includes the following:

- STARCH is used by plants for energy storage because unlike Cellulose, it's formed from glucose units( oriented in the same direction) connected by alpha linkages which can form compact structures that can easily be broken down.

- Cellulose provides structural support for plant cell wall because unlike Starch, it's formed from glucose units( which rotates 180 degrees around the axis of the polymer backbone chain) connected by beta linkages. This pattern gives Cellulose it's rigid features as is allows for hydrogen bonding between two molecules of Cellulose.

Therefore the statement that best describes why starch and cellulose provide different functions in plants is that (The differences in the assembly and organization of the monomers of these two polymers result in different chemical properties).
