Answer:

<u>Starch</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in plants and the glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Cellulose </u>is a structural component of the plant cell wall and glucose molecules are linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Glycogen</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in animals and glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

All of these sugars are polysaccaride sugars containing large number of glucose subunits.

Starch is a polysaccharide extracted from agricultural raw materials. It contains amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is an un-branched chain polymer of D-glucose units while amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of D-glucose units.

Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals, It is stored in muscles and liver and it is a branched polysaccaride.

Cellulose is the storage form of glucose in plants and leaves.

In a new environment colonization of the substrate occurs in sequence hence it is common to see growth in biodiversity of the new ecosystem with time. Ecological succession begins with pioneer plants in primary succession. These pioneer plants break down rocks to soil hence releasing bound nutrients and making them available to higher plants up in the succession line. Therefore, in the beginning, one will find plants such as mos, lichens and annual plants such as grasses. The biodiversity will increase to include shrubs, then plants like trees will eventually appear.
