Problems digesting carbohydrates that can lead to gas and bloating include. 1  lactose intolerance, a condition in which you have digestive symptoms such as bloating, gas, or diarrhea after eating or drinking milk or milk products.
1 Carbohydrates are used in many different ways in an organism. 2  Here polymers of Glucose that are involved in storage and structure are explored.
Polysaccharides are carbohydrate polymers consisting of tens to hundreds to several thousand monosaccharide units. All of the common polysaccharides contain glucose as the monosaccharide unit.Polysaccharides are synthesized by plants, animals, and humans to be stored for food, structural support, or metabolized for energy.he structure of glycogen consists of long polymer chains of glucose units connected by an alpha acetal linkage. The graphic on the left shows a very small portion of a glycogen chain. All of the monomer units are alpha-D-glucose, and all the alpha acetal links connect C # 1 of one glucose to C # 4 of the next glucose.
