Amylopectin is a branched-chain polysaccharide composed of glucose units linked primarily by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds but with occasional α-1,6-glycosidic bonds, which are responsible for the branching. Both amylopectin and glycogen contain branch points that are linked through α-1,6-linkages.

Explanation:
Amylopectin is a component of the starch.
80% of starch is made up of amylopectin. It is highly branched type of the starch and it consists of α-glucose with linear linkage between C1 and C4.
Also there is braching present between C1 and C6.
