Answer:

The correct option is: a. glycogen, starch, and amylopectin

Explanation:

Glycogen, amylopectin and starch are the polysaccharides of glucose. These polymers are composed of monomeric α-glucose units, which are joined by α(1→4) glycosidic bonds.

Since, the amylase enzyme can act only on the glycosidic bonds formed between α-glucose monomers. Therefore, amylase can break down glycogen, starch, and amylopectin.
