No. Starch is a polysaccharide.
Glucose is monosaccharide. Sucrose is disaccharide. Cellulose and starch are polysaccharides.
If starch is the polymer, then the monomer is glucose, which is a monosaccharide. Starch is a polysaccharide that is made up of glucose molecules.
Sucrose is composed of one molecule of glucose linked to one molecule of fructose, and is therefore a disaccharide.ANSWER ITWhich of the following are not molecules? A.NaClB.MgCl2C.AgD.AlE.C3H8AG AND AL ARE NOT MOLECULESapex ;)
The monomer of a carbohydrate is called a monosaccharide, eg. glucose in starch and cellulose, fructose in fructosan or inuline.
A monosaccharide is the monomer unit of the carbohydrates. Two monosaccharide units combine to form a disaccharide. Many monosaccharide units combine to form a polysaccharide. Therefore, the polymer of a monosaccharide is a polysaccharide. An example of a monosaccharide is beta glucose, which polymerises to produce chains of beta glucose molecules (cellulose).
Alpha amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch into it's individual glucose monosaccharide molecules.
Its not a monosaccharide, starch, protein, or lipid

Glucose - C6H12O6 is the monosaccharide (single sugar) comprising starch (in plants) and glycogen (in animals).
Polysaccharides such as starch and inulin are built of monosaccharide (sugar) monomers.
Cellulose is not an animal starch. It comes from the cell walls of plant cells.
Glucose and starch are both in the same family called carbohydrates. Starch is a more complex molecule and sometimes called a polysaccharide, while glucose it the simplest and referred to as a monosaccharide.
because it is technically a Leaf! its chloroplasts are white because it is underground..its roots are under the onion! the onion is NOT a root, so no starch only the monosaccharide glucose from the chloroplasts.
Starch is a polysaccharide ie. a very complex carbohydrate. Enzymes break it down into a di-saccharide - maltose. Another enzymes then converts this into the monosaccharide (simple sugar), glucose.
Monosaccharides, or glucose, are the monomers of carbohydrates. While, polysaccharides, or starch, are the polymers of carbohydrates. Sources: I just learned this yesterday in biology :)
