MCQ

The difference between amylose and amylopectin is

✓
Amylopectin have $1 \rightarrow 4 \alpha$ -linkage and $1 \rightarrow 6\alpha$ -linkage
B
Amylose have $1 \rightarrow 4 \alpha$-linkage and $1 \rightarrow 6\beta$-linkage
C
Amylopectin have $1 \rightarrow 4 \alpha$ -linkage and $1 \rightarrow 6 \beta-$linkage
D
Amylose is made up of glucose and galactose

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

Amylopectin have $1 \rightarrow 4 \alpha$ -linkage and $1 \rightarrow 6\alpha$ -linkage

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.
