Answer the following question given this paragraph: Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in humans and other vertebrates and is made up of monomers of glucose. Glycogen is the animal equivalent of starch and is a highly branched molecule usually stored in liver and muscle cells. Whenever blood glucose levels decrease, glycogen is broken down to release glucose in a process known as glycogenolysis. Cellulose is the most abundant natural biopolymer. The cell wall of plants is mostly made of cellulose; this provides structural support to the cell. Wood and paper are mostly cellulosic in nature. Cellulose is made up of glucose monomers that are linked by 1-4 glycosidic bonds (Figure 3.10). Q: What is the storage form of glucose in humans and other vertebrates? Choices: - neurons - fructose - placenta - glycogen A:
glycogen

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Plate boundaries are where two plates meet. Most geologic activity takes place at plate boundaries. This activity includes volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain building. The activity occurs as plates interact. How can plates interact? Plates can move away from each other. They can move toward each other. Finally, they can slide past each other. Q: Where does most geologic activity take place? Choices: - outer core - asthenosphere - inner core - plate boundaries A:
Answer: plate boundaries
