Question
Chapter 22, Problem 66RQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The relationship between starch, amylose, and amylopectin is to be explained.
Concept Information:
Carbohydrate is the main constituent for all living organisms which are made up of polysaccharides.
Polysaccharides are further classified into starch, cellulose, and glycogen.
Starch is a polysaccharide molecule which contains amylose and amylopectin with glucose units in their structure.
Starch has many vital functions like the storage of energy in plant cell walls.
