What can you conclude is one limitation of the arrangement of glucose molecules that gives chitin and cellulose their strength? A) It does not allow for storage of energy and, therefore, provides little nutritional value. B) It does not allow for the accumulation of glycogen and, therefore, limits the organism's mobility. C) It does not allow for the elimination of waste material and, therefore, causes higher energy use. D) It does not allow for a bonding with hydrogen and, therefore, creates limitations on height.

Which do you think?

B?

I think that's the best guess too. Glucose which is converted into chitin and cellulose isn't available for storage as glycogen, so there is an energetic cost to making chitin and cellulose.
