HUMAN NUTRITION

Detailed explanation-1: -Starch is the stored form of sugars in plants and is made up of glucose monomers that are joined by 1-4 or 1-6 glycosidic bonds.

Detailed explanation-2: -In plants, they make glucose and other monosaccharides by photosynthesis, and then they store them as starch in various plant organs, especially in fruits, seeds, rhizomes, and tubers. Animals store them as glycogen in liver and muscle cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Monosaccharides are usually found in the cytosol (cell sap). Their content is very high in some fruits and vegetables such as corn, peas, and sweet potatoes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Monosaccharides are comprised of a single simple sugar unit, glucose, fructose, or galactose, and they cannot be broken down into simple sugar units. These three monosaccharides are combined in various ways to make more complex carbohydrates.
