(b)
Interpretation: Among the given characterizations, the one that applies to both amylose and amylopectin 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.
