The difference between amylose and amylopectin is

A

Amylopectin have `1to4 alpha`- linkage and `1to6 alpha`- linkage

B

Amylose is have `1to4 alpha`- linkage and `1to6beta`- linkage

C

Amylose is made up of glucose and galactose

D

Amylopectin have `1to4 alpha`- linkage and `1to6 beta`- linkage

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Amylose and Amylopectin are polymers of `alpha`-D-glucose, so `beta-`link is not possible, Amylose is linear with `1to4 alpha` linkage whereas Amylopectin is branched and has both `1to4` and `1to6alpha`- linkages.
