(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Among the given characterizations, the one that applies to both starch and cellulose has to be stated.

Concept introduction: The polymer which is formed by the combination of several monosaccharides is called a polysaccharide.  These monosaccharides can be same, called as homopolysaccharide or different called as heteropolysaccharides.  A molecule with a straight chain is called unbranched polysaccharide and that with a branched chain is called as branched polysaccharide.
