Question

What can you conclude is one limitation of the arrangement of glucose molecules that gives chitin and cellulose their strength?

Answer 1

The correct answer is: It does not allow for the accumulation of glycogen and, therefore, limits the organism's mobility.

The strength of the chitin polymer matrix is higher than the cellulose polymer matrix due to the increased hydrogen bonding capacity. Therefore, chitin provides more rigidity than the cellulose does.
