A) branched chain of glucose molecules linked by , 1,6 glycosidic bond at the site of branching
B) unbranched chain of glucose molecules linked by , 1,4 glycosidic bond
C) branched chain of glucose molecules linked by , 1, 4 glycosidic bond in straight chain and , 1, 6 glycosidic bond at the site of branching
D) unbranched chain of glucose molecules linked by \[\beta \], 1, 4 glycosidic bond
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Cellulose \[{{({{C}_{6}}{{H}_{10}}{{O}_{5}})}_{n}}\] is the most abundant organic polymer. It is a polysaccharide an; consists of long unbranched chains of glucose residues linked by \[\beta \], 1-4 glycosidic bonds, In plants, cellulose is formed from sugar. It serves as building material in the formation of cell wall.
