Hi hope this is ok for you, w.w
Polysaccharides are polymers of monosaccharides. Polysaccharides are formed by three or more monosaccharides, for example Amylose (starch), Amylopectin, Glycogen (animal storage polymer), Cellulose, etc.AMYLOSE AND AMYLOPECTIN
Amylose, or starch, is a helical chain of Glucose monomers, which are bonded by glycosidic linkages (Alfa linkages 1 - 4). Amylose is a storage polysaccharide in plant cells, we can obtain Amylose from potatoes. Humans can use Amylose as an energy source by hydrolysis of the polymer using specific enzymes (organic substances that accelerate or retard the biochemical reactions).
Amylopectin is the branched starch, and it can also be used by humans as a primary energy source.
Monosaccharides are carbohydrates that cannot be hydrolized to obtain smaller molecules of carbohydrate.
Glucose is a well-known monosaccharide.
The condensed formula of Glucose is:
C6H12O6
This means that the molecule of Glucose is built by 6 atoms of Carbon, 12 atoms of Hydrogen and 6 atoms of Oxygen.
urghh rather you than me .lol

Amylose is a pigment, I believe it is a starch. That's all I know. Hope it helps!

God Bless!
