Why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby decreasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby increasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby increasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby decreasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils.

Which is a difference between molecular compounds and ionic compounds? select the correct answer below: question 5 options: molecular compounds typically form between a metal and a nonmetal, while ionic compounds typically form between nonmetals. molecular compounds result from the transfer of electrons between atoms to form ions, while ionic compounds result from the sharing of electrons between neutral atoms. molecular compounds are formed of discrete, neutral molecules, while ionic compounds are formed of large repeating arrays of opposite charges. molecular compounds have high melting points and high boiling points, while ionic
