a) starch.
b) glycogen.
c) cellulose.
d) chitin.

question 37
unsaturated fatty acids contain more __ than saturated ones.
a) carbons

Explanation:

Question 35

The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. A pH of 7 is neutral. Values less than 7 are acidic, and values greater than 7 are basic. Since 8.5 > 7, the solution is basic.

Starch is the energy - storage polymer in plants. Glycogen is the polysaccharide that animals use to store energy, composed of many glucose units. Cellulose is a structural polysaccharide in plant cell walls, and chitin is a structural polysaccharide in the exoskeleton of arthropods and cell walls of fungi.

Saturated fatty acids have single bonds between carbon atoms, while unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms. Unsaturated fatty acids have fewer hydrogens (since each double bond reduces the number of hydrogen atoms) and the number of carbons is not the main difference. So unsaturated fatty acids contain more double bonds (or less hydrogens, but based on common question structure) than saturated ones. If the options included double bonds, that would be the answer. But since the visible option A is carbons (which is incorrect as the number of carbons isn't the key difference), assuming the correct option (if we consider the full question) related to double bonds. However, based on the given visible part, if we assume the options were about double bonds (a common question), unsaturated fatty acids have more double bonds. But with the given visible option A (carbons) being incorrect, and assuming the intended question: Unsaturated fatty acids contain more double bonds than saturated ones. But since the user's image shows option A as carbons, and maybe the full options had double bonds as another option (like B: double bonds, C: hydrogens etc.). But based on the common question, the answer is related to double bonds. If we have to go with the visible part, but since the question is incomplete, but based on knowledge: Unsaturated fatty acids have more carbon - carbon double bonds than saturated fatty acids (saturated have only single bonds). So if the options had double bonds, that's the answer.

Answer:

A. basic.
