What is the difference between starch and cellulose? What is the difference between starch and cellulose?

A) In cellulose, the polymer is assembled using fructose instead of glucose. Cellulose is similar to glycogen in that it is used for short-term energy storage because the bonds can be easily hydrolyzed. Starch is used for long-term energy storage.

B) Cellulose can be hydrolyzed into monomers by the human digestive tract, whereas starch cannot.

C) Cellulose is composed of alternating monomers of glucose and galactose, whereas starch is composed of glucose only.

D) The monosaccharide monomers of cellulose differ from those in starch. The human digestive tract cannot hydrolyze these monomers.

E) In cellulose, the glucose monomers are assembled in an alternating pattern on different sides of the linked monomers, and the human digestive tract cannot break the bonds. In starch, the glucose monomers are not alternated and our digestive tract can break these bonds.

Cellulose (or fiber) is also made of many glucose molecules, yet this would not be beneficial to eat prior to a long run. Explain why starchy foods are better to eat in this situation compared to cellulose, in terms of their chemical differences.

A plant researcher wants to construct a synthetic cellulose fiber from 20 glucose molecules how many molecules of CO2 and glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate are needed to construct a fiber
