Question

Which substance has structural similarity to floridean starch?

Answer 1

Floridean starch is considered as a type of storage glucan that is very much commonly found in Red algae. They are also termed as Rhodophytes. This is very commonly also found in granules and grains in which the cytoplasm is composed of alph-liked polymer of glucose.

Floridean starch has a structure that is very much similar to the Amylopectin or even to Glycogen. These types also differ with other types of polymers in physical properties and position of branches formed.

The similar type of Floridean starch is also termed as Semi Amylopectin.

Answer 2

'Floridean starch' has a structure which is  mostly similar to the Amylopectin and Glycogen.

EXAPLAINATION:

Floridean starch is considered to be a type of Glucan storage which is commonly bound in red algae. It also found in 'granules' and 'grains' in which  cytoplasm is comprised of alpha like 'polymer' of glucose.

These types of 'polymers' in physical properties where the position of branches are formed. The similar type of Floridean starch is also termed as Semi Amylopectin.
