Answer;

-Glucose

Glucose is the most common monomer for polysaccharides, it is a monosaccharide or a simple sugar.

Explanation;

-Polysaccharides are long chains of monosaccharides linked by glycosidic bonds. Three important polysaccharides, starch, glycogen, and cellulose, are composed of glucose. Starch and glycogen serve as short-term energy stores in plants and animals, respectively. The glucose monomers are linked by α glycosidic bonds.

-Starch (a polymer of glucose) is used as a storage polysaccharide in plants, being found in the form of both amylose and the branched amylopectin. Glycogen is a similar glucose polymer that is more densely branched.

Ability to be molded. A:density B:plasticity
sdas [7]
The answer is B

Explanation. The density explains the amount of mass for how small or large an object is. Best way to test density is with water. If it is MORE DENSE (heavier in small area) it will sink.

Plasticity is to be molded. You can mold plastic is is bendable and heats up easily to give the advantage of being reshaped
