The uses of the polysaccharides are as follows.
- Polysaccharides are long chains of similar or different monosaccharide units that are joined by glycosidic bonds.
- Amylose is the soluble component of starch which is not branched and monomeric units of glucose form a straight chain. It is the main form of food storage in plants.
- Cellulose is also a long chain of glucose molecules that is an important structural component in plant cell walls. Cellulose is not digestible.
- Glycogen is the insoluble form of storage of food in animals. Excess glucose in our body is converted to glycogen in the liver and stored for future use.
