Question

multiple select question select all that apply choose the statements that describe amylose accurately. (more than one answer may be correct) has a highly branched - chain structure comprises about 20% of digestible starch long, straight chain of glucose units food sources include vegetables, beans, breads, pasta, and rice

Explanation:

Amylose is a linear polysaccharide made up of glucose units. It has a long, straight - chain of glucose units. Food sources of starch (which includes amylose) are vegetables, beans, breads, pasta, and rice.
