AGlycogen
BStarch
Correct Answer
CCellulose
DChitin
Solution
Starch is a storage polysaccharide made up of glucose. A molecule of starch is made up of straight chain amylose and branched chain amylopectin. Amylose is formed by joining of glucose molecules by $$\alpha$$-1, 4 linkage in a straight chain. In Amylopectin, glucose units are linked in a linear way with (14) glycosidic bonds and branching takes place with (16) bonds occurring every 24 to 30 glucose units.
