Polysaccharides is the technical name for complex carbs. Complex carbohydrates are carbs that are digested more slowly than simple carbs. They also cause less of a spike in insulin levels than simple carbs. This means they keep you fuller, longer, and they give you lasting, steady energy instead of a short-term sugar rush.
a complex carbohydrate polymer formed by the linkage of many monosaccharide monomers; starch, glycogen, and cellulose are polysaccharides.
Glue-like material formed by microorganisms in the process of mineralization, or breaking down organic matter. They are complex sugars which hold individual soil particles together. This creates larger particles known as aggregates.
carbohydrates in which 3 or more monosaccharides are joined chemically
complex carbohydrates formed by linking multiple monosaccharides.
Polysaccharides are compounds consisting of a large number of monosaccharides linked together by glycosidic bonds. Some important examples are starch, glycogen, and cellulose.
Are many sugars linked together - starch and cellulose.
Complex carbohydrates containing many simple sugars (monosaccharides) linked together. Starch and pectins are polysaccharides.
complex carbohydrates such as starch and cellulose.
Carbohydrates made up of monosaccharides (simple sugars). Starch and cellulose are polysaccharides.
Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates, made of multiple sugar molecules. Common polysaccharides include cellulose, starch and dextrin.
Long chains of monosaccharide units bonded together; e.g., glycogen, starch, and cellulose. PICTURE
a branched chain of dozens, sometimes hundreds, of glucose molecules; starches
These are carbohydrates containing a large number of “sugar groups.” Starch, glycogen, dextrin, and cellulose are examples.
Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates, made up of multiple sugar molecules.
A molecule with multiple units of sugar
