Question

Mixture of alpha amylose and amylopectin is called as

Answer 1

It contains two polymers composed of glucose units: amylose (linear) and amylopectin (branched). Glycogen is a storage form of energy in animals. ... It is a linear polymer with the glucose units linked through β-1,4-glycosidic bonds.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Both amylose and amylopectin are polysaccharides because both of them contains number of monosaccharide units.

When a mixture of alpha amylose combines with amylopectin then it results in the formation of starch.

Molecular formula of both amylose and amylopectin is $(C_{6}H_{10}O_{5})_{n}$. But difference in their structure is that amylose is a linear molecule and amylopectin is a branched molecule.

Thus, we can conclude that mixture of of alpha amylose and amylopectin is called as starch.
