Two Biologically Important Polymers of Glucose Contain the Same Number

Multiple Choice

Two biologically important polymers of glucose contain the same number of monomers and have the same mass, yet one is soluble in water and the other is not.This can be explained by the fact that the two polymers

A) differ in their proportions of glucose units existing in ring form versus straight-chain form.
B) differ in the amount of hydrogen bonding taking place between glucose residues in their chains.
C) were biosynthesized in different cells by different enzymes.
D) contain glycosidic linkages between different oxygen and carbon atoms in the monomeric units.
E) have different biological functions.
