Options

  1. AGlycogenh Glucose
  2. BChitin N-Acetyl glucosamine (NAG)
  3. CInulin Mannose
  4. DMucopolysaccharide Amino sugars and other chemically modified sugars

Correct answer

C. Inulin Mannose

Step-by-step solution

Polysaccharides - Long chain polymers of monosaccharides. - Present in acid insoluble fraction. - Examples : 1 . Cellulose : It is a homopolymer with glucose as unit. Cellulose is found in cell wall of plants, algae, etc. 2 . Starch : It is also a homopolymer of glucose. It serve as store house of energy in plant tissues. 3 . Glycogen : It is a homopolymer of glucose. It serve as store house of energy in animals. 4 . Inulin : It is a homopolymer of fructose. 5 . Chitin : It is a complex homopolysaccharide made up o
