Question

use the following diagram to answer the question.
cellulose is a carbohydrate and a polymer of glucose. which statement best describes how cellulose is formed within living organisms?
1 it is assembled by bonding individual atoms.
2 it is constructed by connecting smaller monomer subunits.
3 it is the product of the decomposition of a much larger molecule.
4 it is the result of a physical change that alters the shape of a compound.

Explanation:

Cellulose is a polymer. Polymers are formed by connecting smaller monomer subunits. Glucose is the monomer of cellulose. So, the formation of cellulose involves connecting these glucose monomer subunits.

Answer:

1. It is constructed by connecting smaller monomer subunits.
