Cellulose is _________ chain of _________ units connected by _________ bonds.
Amylose is an unbrached chain of D-glucose units connected by a-1,4-glycosidic bonds.
Cellulose is chain of D-fructose units connected by | B-1,4-glycosidic bonds.
Explanation:
Both, amylose and cellulose are polysaccharides, meaning that they consist of a large number of monosaccharide units. Alo, both form linear structures composed of D-glucose. Differences in those two sugars are that amylose is storage molecule in which glucose unit are connected with α-(1, 4)-glycosidic bond, while cellulose is a structural molecule in which glucose units are linked with β (1, 4) glycosidic bonds.
Amylose is component of starch. Cellulose is the main component of the plants' cell wall.
