Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of the α- and β- glucose anomers upon its dissolution in the solvent water. This process is usually seen in the chemistry of carbohydrates.
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotating the polarized light’s plane in the direction anticlockwise. L isomers are one of the 2 isomers formed by the configurational stereochemistry of the carbohydrates.

**Task:**
Highlight each glycosidic bond in the molecule below. Then answer the questions in the table under the drawing area.
**Diagram Description:**
The image displays a structural diagram of a carbohydrate molecule, which consists of several monosaccharide units connected by glycosidic bonds. Each monosaccharide is represented by a ring structure with various hydroxyl (OH) groups, hydrogen atoms (H), and an oxygen bridge indicating the glycosidic linkages between them. The carbohydrate chain is branched, showing connection points that are characteristic of complex carbohydrates like glycogen or amylopectin.
**Questions:**
1. **List the symbol for each type of glycosidic bond in the molecule above.**
- For example, if there are three α(1→5) glycosidic bonds, write "α(1→5)."
- If there is more than one type of glycosidic bond, separate each symbol with a comma.
2. **Could this molecule be a tiny piece of any of the polymers listed at right?**
- If so, check the box next to each polymer of which this molecule could be a tiny piece.
**Options:**
- [ ] DNA
- [ ] RNA
- [ ] Amylose
- [ ] Glycogen
- [ ] Cellulose
- [ ] Amylopectin
**Explanation / Check Section:**
Contains buttons for explanation and verification of the completed task.
