From the following, the correct statements about polysaccharides are (I) Starch is a polymer of \(\alpha-\mathrm{D}(+)\)-glucose (II) Amylose component of starch is not soluble in water. (III)Amylose is a branched chain polymer of \(\alpha-\mathrm{D}(+)-\) glucose. (IV) Cellulose is a straight chain polymer of \(\beta-\mathrm{D}(+)\) glucose units
- A I \& IV only
- B II \& III only
- C II \& IV only
- D I \& III only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) I \& IV only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Starch is a polymer of \(\alpha-\mathrm{D}(+)\)-glucose. Amylose is a water soluble component which constitutes about 15 \(20 \%\) of starch. Chemically, amylose is a long unbranched chain with 200-100 \(\alpha-\mathrm{D}-(+)\) - glucose units held together by…
