A polysaccharide complex refers to a large molecule composed of long chains of monosaccharide units, which are simple sugars linked together by glycosidic bonds. These complexes can serve various functions in living organisms, such as energy storage (e.g., starch and glycogen) and structural support (e.g., cellulose in plants). Polysaccharides can be branched or unbranched and vary in their solubility and digestibility. They play essential roles in both biological processes and industrial applications.
