Yes, polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates.
Complex sugars or starches are called polysaccharides.
Complex sugars are also known as complex carbohydrates and there are three or more units of sugar in them. Complex sugars include assimilable polysaccharides, including pasta and potatoes, and non-assimilable polysaccharides that include green vegetables.
Yes polysaccharides are carbohydrates. These are complex carbohydrates as they consist of long (sometimes) branched sturctures. Examples of polysaccharides are starch, cellulose and glycogen.
Polysaccharides have more chemical bonds.
No, polysaccharides are not types of proteins. Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates made up of multiple sugar molecules, while proteins are macromolecules made up of amino acids.
Yes, iodine can be used to test for the presence of polysaccharides. When iodine comes into contact with certain polysaccharides like starch, it can form a blue-black complex, indicating the presence of the polysaccharide.
Yes, grains such as wheat, rice, and oats contain polysaccharides. Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates made up of multiple sugar units linked together, and they provide an important source of energy for the body.
Polymers of sugars form complex carbohydrates, such as starch and cellulose in plants, and glycogen in animals. These long chains of sugar molecules serve as energy storage molecules or structural components in cells and tissues.
False. Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates made of sugar molecules bonded together. Proteins are made from amino acids, not polysaccharides.
No, polysaccharides are not isomers. Isomers are compounds with the same chemical formula but different structural arrangements. Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates made up of repeating units of simple sugars like glucose, fructose, and galactose.
monosaccharides are the monomers of polysaccharides
