What is false about starch and cellulose?

Starch and cellulose are both polysaccharides composed of glucose units, but they differ significantly in structure and function. A common misconception is that they are interchangeable; however, starch is primarily used for energy storage in plants, while cellulose serves as a structural component in plant cell walls. Additionally, starch consists of alpha-glucose units, making it digestible by humans, whereas cellulose is made of beta-glucose units, which humans cannot digest.
