Q: The difference between amylose and amylopectin is

a Amylose is long unbranched chaln with $\alpha-\mathrm{D}$ - Glucose with held by $\mathrm{C}_{1}-\mathrm{C}_{4}$ glucosidic linkage whereas amylopectin is branched chain polymer of $\alpha -D$ glucose unit in which chain is formed by $\mathrm{C}_{1}-\mathrm{C}_{4}$ glycosidic linkage while branching occurs by $\mathrm{C}_{1}-\mathrm{C}_{6}$ glucosidic linkage.
