What monosaccharide is starch composed of?
Starch is a polysaccharide, not a disaccharide, as it is a polymer of many sugar units. A disaccharide would contain just two units (for example, sucrose).
Why does a plant need starch?
Glucose is soluble in water and starch is insoluble in water. So for storage in a rather wet medium such as a plant cell, glucose is changed to insoluble starch. When the plant needs glucose for respiration or other processes it changes the starch back to soluble glucose for transportation in solution through the phloem system.

What is the energy storing polysacharide of plants?
Starch.
Is polysacharide a protein?
Not at all.Polysaccharide belongs to Carbohydrates(as it is the most abundant group of it).It includes starch,glycogen,cellulose,dextrins,agar,pectin and chitin.
What monosaccharide is starch composed of?
Starch is a polysaccharide, not a disaccharide, as it is a polymer of many sugar units. A disaccharide would contain just two units (for example, sucrose).
Is polysacharide a polymer?
YES. All polymers are made of repeating units called monomers. In this case the repeating unit is a sugar (glucose) forming the polysaccharide such as starch.
What are the elements in maltodextrin?
Maltodextrin is a polysacharide, or complex carbohydrate. It has the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio C(6n) H(10n+2) O(5n+1) where n is an integer that tells you how many sugar units are in the maltodextrin chain.
What is the formula for Guar Gum?
Guar gum is a polysacharide (a long chain made of sugars) made of the sugars galactose and mannose. <a>http://sci-toys.com/ingredients/guar_gum.html</a> Galactose is C6G12O6 Mannose is C6H12O6 Guar gum is thus C12H24O12
What is a polysacharide?
These are very important in healthy diets as they are not broken down into glucose. The glucose molecules that make up NSP are different to the starch/glucogen glucose due to the position of an OH - group. Cellulose is the most common NSP. It is made up of 1000`s of B- Glucose which enyzmes cannot separate.
What is the hard tough outside covering of an insect called?
The cockroach's shell is made of chitin, a complex polysacharide that is also found in the shells of crabs, and lobsters. Artificial chitin is also achieved by human. th ey are also stupid. says people who r stupid lyk me!!!!
What organisms contain cellulose a pine tree a cow a rabbit a fern a grass a goldfish?
Cellulose is a substance made from sugars (a polysacharide) by plants, It is the "structural" material forming the cell walls. Therefore from the above list the pine tree, fern and grass contain cellulose.
What is the antonym for example?
There is no antonym for example, you can't have no example. Therefore there is no antonym for example.
