Starch and cellulose are the compounds of many units of (A) amino acids (B) glycerol (C) simple sugars (D) fatty acids

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Starch consists of two components amylose and amylopectin. Both amylose and amylopectin are formed by the condensation of α - D - glucose. A chain of cellulose molecule contains 6000 or more glucose residues. The successive glucose residues are joined together by 1 - 4 β - linkages.
