Question

What accounts for the differences in the properties of the various polysaccharides in the functions/properties of starches, glycogen, cellulose and chitin?

Answer 1

The differences between these are the type of union, the order of the union and the complexity.

All are polysaccharides, but their unions are stronger or more complex, thus giving rise to different functions such as structural or energy reserves.

Step-by-step explanation:

The types of bonds if they are simple, double or triple also influences the different functions.
