Main complex carbohydrates belonging to polysaccharides. Among the main complex carbohydrates belonging to polysaccharides we have the following: Starch: The substance of plant reserves. It consists of amylose and amylopectin. It is the main carbohydrate in the diet. The body can break it down into simple sugars by enzymes called amylases, which are mainly found in the saliva and the pancreas. It is found in greater amounts in the seeds of cereals, roots (carrots, beets, etc) and tubercles (potatoes, sweet potatoes, cassava, etc) Glycogen: The main form of complex carbohydrate that is stored as energy reserves in animals.
The overall reaction in which carbohydratesârepresented by the general formula (CH 2 O)âare formed during plant photosynthesis can be indicated by the following equation: This equation is merely a summary statement, for the process of photosynthesis actually involves numerous reactions catalyzed by enzymes (organic catalysts).
