Question

multiple choice question a starch molecule may contain thousands of smaller glucose subunits. which of the following statements is true? glucose is a monomer of starch. glucose in an enantiomer of starch. glucose is a polymer of starch. glucose is an isomer of starch.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Starch is a polysaccharide made up of glucose monomers. A monomer is a single unit that can link together to form a polymer. Enantiomers are non - superimposable mirror images, polymers are large molecules made of monomers, and isomers have the same formula but different structures. Since starch is made of glucose units, glucose is a monomer of starch.

Answer:

Glucose is a monomer of starch.
