The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Which of the following set is a biopolymer of glucose?", we will analyze each option provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Biopolymers**: - A biopolymer is a large molecule made up of repeating units (monomers). In this case, we are looking for polymers made specifically from glucose units. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1: Glycogen, Sucrose, and Maltose**: - Glycogen is a biopolymer of glucose, as it is a polysaccharide made up of glucose monomers. - Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. It is not a biopolymer of glucose. - Maltose is also a disaccharide made up of two glucose units. While it is made of glucose, it is not a biopolymer (which requires more than two monomers). - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 3. **Option 2: Glycogen, Cellulose, and Starch**: - Glycogen is a biopolymer of glucose. - Cellulose is a polysaccharide made of glucose monomers and is a major component of plant cell walls. - Starch is another polysaccharide composed of glucose units and serves as a storage form of energy in plants. - **Conclusion**: This option is correct as all three are biopolymers of glucose. 4. **Option 3: Sucrose, Inulin, and Pectin**: - Sucrose, as mentioned, is not a biopolymer of glucose. - Inulin is a polysaccharide made up of fructose units, not glucose. - Pectin is a polysaccharide that primarily consists of galacturonic acid, not glucose. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 5. **Option 4: Glycogen, Sucrose, and Lactose**: - Glycogen is a biopolymer of glucose. - Sucrose is not a biopolymer of glucose. - Lactose is a disaccharide made of glucose and galactose. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **Option 2: Glycogen, Cellulose, and Starch**.
