Question

The difference between amylose and amylopectin is

Options

A.

Amylopectin have 1 →4 α-linkage and 1→6 α-linkage

B.

Amylose have 1 → 4 α-linkage and 1→6 βlinkage

C.

Amylopectin have 1 → 4 α-linkage and 1→6 β-linkage

D.

Amylose is made up of glucose and galactose

Solution

Amylose is long unb ranched chain with
α-D-Glucose with held by C1–C4 glucosidic linkage
