Which is the correct statement?

  1. Starch is a polymer of -glucose.
  2. Amylose is a component of cellulose.
  3. Proteins are composed of only one type of amino acid.
  4. In cyclic structure of fructose, there are four carbons and one oxygen atom.

Answer

(1) Starch is a polymer of -glucose.

Solution

(1) Correct: as per NCERT, starch is a polymer of -glucose (amylose and amylopectin).

(2) Incorrect: amylose is a component of starch; cellulose is a straight-chain polymer of -glucose.

(3) Incorrect: proteins are polymers of many different -amino acids joined by peptide bonds.

(4) Incorrect: cyclic fructose (furanose form) has a five-membered ring of four carbons and one oxygen, but the cyclic structure as a whole contains six carbon atoms (C-1 and C-6 are outside the ring as -CH2OH groups).

Answer: (1)
