Detailed explanation-1: -Cellulose and chitin are structural carbohydrates. Plant cell walls are made up of cellulose. Chitins are present in the exoskeleton of arthopods. While starch and glycogen are carbohydrates.
Detailed explanation-2: -Complex carbohydrates, or polysaccharides, consist of hundreds or even thousands of monosaccharides. They include starch, glycogen, cellulose, and chitin. They generally either store energy or form structures, such as cell walls, in living things. Starch is a complex carbohydrate that is made by plants to store energy.
Detailed explanation-3: -Although a number of classification schemes have been devised for carbohydrates, the division into four major groups-monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides-used here is among the most common.
