Actually, amylose is more compact than amylopectin due to its helical structure. Amylose is unbranching and forms a compact helix, whereas amylopectin is a branching structure.
Amylose is type of starch which is unbranched. Consisting 1-4 Alfa glycosidic linkage. It is not easy to digested and takes less space than amylopectin. Amylopectin is branched and consisting 1 alfa 1-6 linkage per 30 alfa 1-6 linkage. It is similar to glycogen expecting lower level of branching.
solid is more compact and liquid is more lose so that the atoms are able to slide over one another.
Because coal is more compact than wood (it is compressed wood plus organic oils essentially) so has more combustible material in a denser form. This reduces the flame fronts accessability to oxygen.
they are all glycosidic bonds. in cellulose they are bonded so the sugars flip after every bond like a zig zag. in amylose it forms a right handed helix. in amylopectin it forms a right handed helix with a lot of branches (make it less soluble than amylose) Also Cellulose bonds are not hydrolyzed by human enzymes.
Compared to a solid object's molecules no. Unless the water is ice. Water molecules are more compact than gaseous molecules.
Starch is a mixture of two types of polymers (or macromolecules) namely: Amylose and Amylopectin. Both polymers have a fairly large distribution of sizes, but are still made of glucose units. The main distinguishing factor between amylose and amylopectin is the amount of branching. Amylopectin is more branched than amylose (long chain polymer). So amylopectin is actually refering to starch molecules which are branched.
Enzymes are often substrate-specific, meaning they will only catalyze a reaction with a certain molecule. The difference in structure between amylose and amylopectin causes amylase to catalyze one and not the other.
Starch is a polymer consisting of large numbers of alpha-glucose units joined together by glycosidic bonds. It is composed of amylose and amylopectin. In amylose, the glucoe is linked in a linear fashion by 1,4 glycosidic bonds. These bonds cause the chain to coil helically into a more compact shape due to the tetrahedral chemistry of carbon and the bond angles that result. Amylopectin is also compact and has a linear arrangement of glucose linked by 1,4 glycosidic bonds. However, at regular intervals, a 1,6 glycosidic bond forms between two adjacent glucose molecules. These bonds result in the formation of a highly branched structure. Starch has three times more amylopectin than amylose.
Amylopectin is a branched-chain polymer of glucose that is a component of starch, characterized by frequent branching points that create a highly branched structure. It can be broken down into glucose units for energy more quickly than amylose due to its branched structure. Amylopectin is less prone to retrogradation compared to amylose, making it more suitable for applications where a gel-like consistency is desired.

Yes. High amylose corn starches are resistant starches that are not digested. Let me clarify. Most corn starch comes from dent corn and is highly digestible. Cornstarch is nothing more than chains of glucose. Long, linear chains are called amylose and highly branched, tree-like chains are called amylopectin. Regular corn has about 70-75% amylopectin and 25-30% amylose. Raw, uncooked regular cornstarch contains a lot of resistant starch, but once you cook it, it becomes highly digested. In contrast, some corn is naturally rich in amylose and contains about 70-75% amylose and only 25-30% amylopectin. The gelatinization temperature of high amylose corn is higher than most baking - so it retains its resistant starch content through baking. It is possible to blast apart high amylose cornstarch through cereal manufacturing or retort processing. Natural, high amylose resistant cornstarch has been available for many years (Hi-maize brand name) and researchers have been investigating its health properties. To date, more than 70 published human clinical trials have been published in the peer-reviewed scientific literature showing that high amylose resistant corn starch increases satiety so that you can eat less food without feeling hungry, improves insulin sensitivity, shifts your metabolism to burning more fat instead of carbohydrates as energy, and promotes a healthy digestive system. High amylose resistant corn starch is a specialty starch. The vast majority of cornstarch is NOT resistant starch. You have to look for the specialty hybrid to get the resistant starch benefits.
Potatoes store carbohydrates as amylose (starch)Amylose is a linear polymer made up of D-glucose units.This polysaccharide is one of the two components of starch, making up approximately 20-30% of the structure. The other component is amylopectin, which makes up 70-80% of the structure.[1]Because of its tightly packed structure, amylose is more resistant to digestion than other starch molecules and is therefore an important form of resistant starch, which has been found to be an effective prebiotic.[2]
Dietary fiber is cellulose, which is indigestible to humans.Starch is made up of the two polysaccharides amyloseand amylopectin. These are long complex glucose molecules which provide energy to the body more slowly than simple sugars.By weight, starch is mostly amylopectin, which is soluble and easily digested.Amylose is a prebiotic, is insoluble and is digested more slowly than amylopectin.
Starch does react with water it undergoes a hydrolsis reaction. Starch is composed of 2 different polymers - amylose and amylopectin, however for the reaction to occur you need the enzyme amylase - it breaks down amylose alot more efficiently than amylopectin but it will breakdown amylopectin. amylose + (n-1) H2O --(Amylase)--> n Alpha Glucose To break down starch in the lab - without enzymes I assume a concentrated acid catalyst (HCl or H2SO4) under reflux will most likely break it down however i'm not 100% because the connection between the glucose molecule is an ether group not an ester or amide. You'd have to try it yourself to confirm. * You may have to reflux it though for 24hrs because you do for amides, and i'm pretty positive alkaline hydrolysis will not work.
It depends on what kind o compact disk you have. I believe you can record more than once on a rewritable disk.
Liz will use a CD-R compact disk to write to more than once. Carlo will use a CD-RW compact disk to write to more than once. Who is using the correct disk for its purpose?
A sphere.
