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).
What polysaccharide is part of the cell wall in plants?
The cell wall of plants is mainly composed of the carbohydrates cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin.
What biological molecules can make up the bacterial capsule?
The cell capsule is a very large structure of some bacterial cells. It is a layer that lies outside the cell envelope of bacteria.
Is potato starch a mono di or poly saccharide?
it is a polysaccharide
What bio molecule is enzymes?
All the enzymes are protein or protein conjugates(with lipids or carbohydrates)
What is bacillus megaterium?
Bacillus megaterium synthesizes a capsule composed of both polypeptide and polysaccharide. The polypeptide is located laterally along the axis of the cell and the polysaccharide is located at the poles and at the equator of the cell.
What are polypeptide composed of?
A polypeptide is a chain of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, with a molecular weight of up to about 10,000. It is composed of amino acids.
Composed of long chains of amino acids?
Polypeptide bonds....polypeptide bonds equal proteins ;)
Why does lugol's iodine stain a cell?
iodine indicates polysaccharides, therefore plant cells can be stained with iodine, staining the chloroplasts- composed of starch(a polysaccharide), and the cell wall- composed of cellulose ( a polysaccharide)
What is a polysaccharide composed of hundreds of thousands of glucose molecules?

Its a jelly-like substance
High-fructose corn syrup is composed primarily of a polysaccharide called?
Starch
The hard body parts of insects and crabs are composed of a polysaccharide called?
chitin
How could a change in a polypeptide affect cell activity?
Enzymes are derived from polypeptide chains, enzymes are responsible for adequate cell activity. Therefore, if a polypeptide chain is not properly composed, the enzyme will be dysfunctional, hence leading to a depletion in cell activity.
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).
