I: | Cellulose is a polymeric polysaccharide consisting of only one type of monosaccharide. |
II: | Starch is a homopolymer. |
III: | Inulin is a polymer of fructose. |
IV: | In glycogen, the right end is called the reducing end, and the left end is called the non-reducing end. |
I. | Starch | - | Storage of glucose in plants |
II. | Glycogen | - | Storage of glucose in animals |
III. | Cellulose | - | Structural component of plant cell walls |
IV. | Chitin | - | Structural component in fungal cell walls and exoskeletons of insects |
I: | Cellulose does not contain complex helices. |
II: | Inulin is a polymer of fructose. |
III: | Left end of glycogen is the reducing end |
Chitin, a complex polysaccharide, is found in:
1. | Plant cell wall |
2. | The exoskeleton of arthropods and cell walls of most fungi |
3. | Bacterial cell wall |
4. | Cartilage and other connective tissues |
I: | is a long-chain polymer of N-acetylglucosamine. |
II: | is a primary component of cell walls in fungi. |
