(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The main structural difference between amylose and cellulose is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

Glycosidic bond is the bond present between two monosaccharide molecules which are bonded together to form a disaccharide molecule.  If both the monosaccharide molecules are connected through equatorial-equatorial or axial-axial positions, then the linkages present are alpha linkages and the sugars connected through axial-equatorial positions, then the linkage is beta linkage.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The main structural difference between amylose and amylopectin is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

Glycosidic bond is the bond present between two monosaccharide molecules which are bonded together to form a disaccharide molecule.  If both the monosaccharide molecules are connected through equatorial-equatorial or axial-axial positions, then the linkages present are alpha linkages and the sugars connected through axial-equatorial positions, then the linkage is beta linkage.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The main structural difference between amylopectin and glycogen is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

Glycosidic bond is the bond present between two monosaccharide molecules which are bonded together to form a disaccharide molecule.  If both the monosaccharide molecules are connected through equatorial-equatorial or axial-axial positions, then the linkages present are alpha linkages and the sugars connected through axial-equatorial positions, then the linkage is beta linkage.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The main structural difference between cellulose and chitin is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

Glycosidic bond is the bond present between two monosaccharide molecules which are bonded together to form a disaccharide molecule. If both the monosaccharide molecules are connected through equatorial-equatorial or axial-axial positions, then the linkages present are alpha linkages and the sugars connected through axial-equatorial positions, then the linkage is beta linkage.
