Starch molecules are polymer with repeating glucose units. Select the correct statement(s).
- Glucose units are joined through \(\alpha\)-glycosidic linkage
- The branches of amylopectin are linked to the chain with alpha -1,6’- glycosidic linkages.
- The linear linkages of amylopectin are formed by \(\alpha\)-1, 6-glycosidic bond.
- Amylose has an unbranched skeleton of glucose molecules with \(\alpha\)-1, 4-glycosidic linkages.
