A polysaccharide is shown below Identify all the statements

A polysaccharide is shown below. Identify all the statements that are TRUE for this polysaccharide. You may select more than one answer! Select one or more: This monomer for this polysaccharide is a-glucose. The use of this polysaccharide as a biofuel is limited due to the difficulty of breaking the glycosidic linkages between the monomers. This polysaccharide could be synthesized by a plant cell. The carbons in each monomer of this polysaccharide are in a reduced state. The organism that synthesizes this pollysaccharide uses it primarily for energy storage.
