Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The correct option corresponding to a branched polymer of glucose found in the liver and muscle cells is to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Monosaccharides are the small units of simple sugars. Disaccharides are formed by two units of monosaccharides. Polysaccharides are made up of small units of monosaccharides. These small units are joined together by glycoside linkage. Glucose is a monosaccharide. The molecular formula of glucose is C6H12O6.

What is the polymer made from the following monomers? What type of polymerization is used for each? а. ОН H2N но b. ن -NH2 d. H₂N NH2 дов
Condensation polymers are produced when monomers containing two different functional groups link together with the loss of a small molecule such as H2O.       The difunctional monomer H2N(CH2)6COOH forms a condensation polymer. Draw the carbon-skeleton structure of the dimer that forms from this monomer.
What is the structure of the monomer?
