4. Replace y with f-1(x).  Inverse functions are usually written as f -1 (x) = (x terms) . Note that in this case, the -1 exponent doesn't mean we should perform an exponent operation on our function. It's just a way of indicating that this function is the inverse of our original.
Answered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time. No, starch is held together by a-1,4 glycosidic linkages. Carbohydrates, starch in this case, form glycosidic bonds while proteins (amino-acids) are the ones that form peptide bonds.!!!
These strong covalent bonds form the the glue that holds the sugar/phosphate backbone together and thus act to keep each strand together. The two strands of DNA are held together by weak hydrogen bonds (remember, something must hold them together!) between the nitrogenous bases.
