Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The name of unbranched polysaccharide in starch is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

A large molecule formed by combining multiplenumbers of monosaccharides is called polysaccharide. These monosaccharides can be same, called as homo-polysaccharide or different called as hetero-polysaccharides. A molecule with a straight chain is called linear polysaccharide and that with a branched chain is called a branched polysaccharide.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The name of the polysaccharide that is widely used as a textile fiber is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

A large molecule formed by combining the multiplenumbers of monosaccharides is called polysaccharide. These monosaccharides can be same, called as homo-polysaccharide or different called as hetero-polysaccharides. A molecule with a straight chain is called linear polysaccharide and that with a branched chain is called abranched polysaccharide.
