D
starch
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellulose is a polysaccharide consisting of a linear chain of several hundred to many thousands of linked glucose units. Cellulose is an important structural component of the cell walls of plants and many algae.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellulose, a tough, fibrous, and water-insoluble polysaccharide, plays an integral role in keeping the structure of plant cell walls stable. Cellulose chains are arranged in microfibrils or bundles of polysaccharide that are arranged in fibrils (bundles of microfibrils), which in turn make up the plant cell wall.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellulose, a fibrous carbohydrate found in all plants, is the structural component of plant cell walls. Because the earth is covered with vegetation, cellulose is the most abundant of all carbohydrates, accounting for over 50% of all the carbon found in the vegetable kingdom.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cellulose is the most abundant carbohydrate in nature. It provides structural integrity to plant cell walls. The basic unit is 1, 4 linkage, straight chain, nonbranching (Figure 3.3). Cellulose is highly stable.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cellulose has no calories, vitamins or minerals, and no protein, carbohydrates or fat. Cellulose is a type of insoluble fiber, which means the body can’t digest it.
