Question

Match the following:
List-I (Glycosidic linkage) 
A. $\alpha$-1,4 
B. $\beta$-1,4 
C. $\alpha$-1,4, $\alpha$-1,6 
List-II (Polysaccharide) 
I. Amylose 
II. Amylopectin 
III. Cellulose

• A. A-II, B-I, C-III
• B. A-III, B-I, C-II
• C. A-I, B-II, C-III
• D. A-I, B-III, C-II

Hint:

Amylose: $\alpha$-1,4. Cellulose: $\beta$-1,4. Amylopectin: $\alpha$-1,4 and $\alpha$-1,6.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Amylose: A linear polymer of glucose with $\alpha$-1,4-glycosidic linkages.
Cellulose: A linear polymer of glucose with $\beta$-1,4-glycosidic linkages.
Amylopectin: A branched polymer of glucose with $\alpha$-1,4-glycosidic linkages and $\alpha$-1,6-glycosidic linkages at the branch points.
