Glucose, a monosaccharide, is found in three different polysaccharides: starch,
glycogen, chitin. there are differences between the structure and function of the
glucose arrangement found in these polysaccharides. which statement
correctly identifies the difference in glucose structure in one of these
polysaccharides?
a. glucose molecules are joined in a long chain to make starch that is easily digested for energy
b. glucose molecules are joined in long branched chains to make glycogen that allows for long term energy storage in animals
c. glucose molecules are joined in long chains with hydrogen bonds connecting multiple chains to make cellulose which is easily broken down for quick digestion
d. glucose molecules with attached amino groups are joined in long chains by a peptide bond to make chitin which makes up the cell wall of some bacteria and fungi
