BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants build carbohydrates using light energy from the sun (during the process of photosynthesis), while animals eat plants or other animals to obtain carbohydrates. Plants store carbohydrates in long polysaccharides chains called starch, while animals store carbohydrates as the molecule glycogen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Animals store excess sugar in the form of glycogen. Plants store excess sugar in the form of starch. Both glycogen and starch are polysaccharides.

Detailed explanation-3: -Amylopectin, glycogen, and amylose are the polysaccharides used for storing sugars in plants and animals.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Glycogen or other long chains of sugar are called polysaccharides. They are made up of repeating units of single sugar molecules called monosaccharides like glucose. When many glucose units are linked together through glycosidic bonds they form a polymer of sugars called glycogen.

Detailed explanation-5: -Glucose is stored as polysaccharide-starch in plants and glycogen in animals. The animals store glycogen in liver and muscles.
