explain in details the biodeterioriation of cellulose and cellulosic materials
Understanding that amylose (wheat starch) and cellulose (wheat stock or shaft) are stereoisomers that contain long chains of glucose, should the United States and the World continue to seek new methods of ethanol production through the breakdown of cellulosic substances to achieve the fermentation of glucose? explain why?
compare and explain the attraction between Fe 2+ and cellulose , Cu 2+ and cellulose , and Ni 2+ and cellulose. ( This is relating to paper chromotohrapy, the solvent used is HCL)
Cellulose and starch are both polymers of glucose but fulfil very different functions in cells. Explain the roles and properties of the two polymers and speculate which of their properties may have aided the evolution of their current function. Use the following terms in your explanation: Glycosidic bonds; Starch; Cellulose; Cell wall; Energy storage

Explain briefly why cellulose and starch have such different properties even though they are both polymers of hexose sugars
Cellulose could provide an abundant and cheap form of glucose for humans. Why is cellulose not a source of nutrients for humans? Cellulose digestion must occur in a basic environment, but the human gut is acidic. Humans, and most vertebrates, lack the enzyme cellulase. Humans cannot absorb the hydrolyzed form of cellulose Animals use starch and glycogen as an energy source, whereas plants use cellulose for energy. vertebrate enzymes are unable to hydrolyze (β 1-4) linked glucose monomers. □
what is the difference between nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and cellulose nanocrystal (CNC)?
State which types of organism make the following polysaccharides: cellulose, glycogen, chitin, starch. Explain which types are digestible by animals and why
The attic of a house is insulated with 15-cm thick cellulose insulation. If the cellulose ls replaced by fiberglass insulation that is 25 cm thick, how does the rate of heat flow to or from the attic change? The thermal conductivities are 0. 060 W/(m · K) for cellulose and 0. 030 W/(m · K) for fibergass.
1. Despite having numerous hydroxyl functional groups cellulose is water insoluble. Briefly explain. 2. Why were many student’s benzoic acid crystals following extraction pink or orange in color? Briefly explain.
