Which of the following statements is FALSE about polysaccharides? They are long chain structures containing a large number of repeating monosaccharide units. Starch, cellulose, and glycogen are polysaccharides. They break down to produce monosaccharides during digestion. Table sugar is not a polysaccharide.
