What do digestive enzymes split starch into?

Starch is a polysaccharide made up of a chain of sugar molecules. Digestive enzymes split starch into glucose molecules by breaking up links of the chain.


Why do glycogen starch and cellulose have different functions?

starch: made up of a long chain of glucose molecules bonded together by an alpha 1,4 bond. (carbon 1 of one glucose is bonded to carbon 4 of another glucose) Cellulose: made up of a long chain of glucose molecules bonded together by a beta 1,4 bond. (carbon 1 of one glucose is bonded to carbon 4 of another glucose) glycogen: made up of a long chain of glucose bonded together by an alpha 1,4 bond. However, the glycogen chain of glucoses is a branched chain- it is not one straight chain, it branches out starch is stored as glucose in plants glycogen is stored as glucose in animals cellulose is used as the cell wall of plants


Do glucose make up carbohydrates?
