Starch is a polysaccharide that serves as a storage form of glucose in plants. It consists of two main components: amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is a linear polymer of glucose units linked by α - 1,4 - glycosidic bonds. Amylopectin is a branched polymer, with α - 1,4 - glycosidic bonds forming the linear chains and α - 1,6 - glycosidic bonds at the branch points. Cellulose is a structural polysaccharide in plants (not part of starch), and cellulite is a term related to the appearance of skin (not a polysaccharide).
