1.4 Starch, Cellulose and Glycogen
  1. Starch
    1. 1-4 and 1-6 Glycosidic bonds
      1. Branched
        1. Has many ends which can be acted upon by enzymes simultaneously
        2. Unbranched
          1. Coils to helix
            1. Compact for storage
        3. Insoluble
          1. Doesn't effect water potential
          2. Energy Storage
            1. a-glucose
              1. Easily transported
                1. Readily used in photosynthesis
                2. PLANTS
                3. Cellulose
                  1. Plant cell wall
                    1. Strong
                      1. Straight, unbranched chains
                        1. Run paralell
                          1. Hydrogen bonds between chains
                            1. STRONG
                          2. Every other monomer rotated 180 degrees, allowing the H bonds to form between hydroxyl (OH) groups.
                          3. BETA GLUCOSE
                            1. Group together to form microfibrills
                              1. Fibrous = strong
                            2. Glycogen
                              1. "Animal starch"
                                1. Insoluble
                                  1. Compact
                                    1. More branches than starch
                                      1. More enzymes to act simultaneously
                                        1. Faster hydrolysis to glucose monomers
