Glycogen
A polysaccharide
576 glucose molecules would be produced upon total hydrolysis of the polysaccharide. Each glucose molecule represents one unit of the polysaccharide chain, so when it is broken down, each unit is released as a glucose molecule.
What is the smallest number of glucose molecules that can form a polysaccharide?
Glucose Glucose units come together to form large cellulose and starch molecules.
C6h12o6 + c6h12o6 + c6h12o6 → c18h32o16
Simple starch.
No, glucose and starch are different molecules. Starch is a polysaccharide made up of multiple glucose molecules linked together. Glucose, on the other hand, is a simple sugar and the primary source of energy for living organisms.
No, starch is not a monosaccharide. Starch is a complex carbohydrate made up of multiple glucose units linked together. Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose.
Glucose+glucose=a disaccharide called "maltose" Glucose+lots more glucose=a polysaccharide called "starch"
Cellobiose is not a polysaccharide; it is a disaccharide composed of two glucose molecules linked together. Polysaccharides are larger carbohydrates made up of multiple monosaccharide units joined together in a chain.
A monosacharide is a "simple" sugar such as glucose or fructose. A polysaccharide is a polymer made by linking many monosacharides together. For example, glycogen is a polysaccharide; it is a polymer of glucose.
Carbohydrates are the molecules made of sugar repeats. Starch, cellulose and glycogen are classical example for the same. They can be digested back to the monomers by the enzymes that catalyse the hydrolysis reaction such as cellulase or amylase.
