Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D
Amylopectin and glucogen have almost similar structure in which glucose are linked linearly to each other by `C_(1)-C_(4)` glucosidic linkage and branched at `C_(1)-C_(6)` glycosidix linkage.

Glycogen are carbohydrates stored in animal body. The structure to similar to amylopectin and is rather more highly branched.
