The answer is the second one: Polysaccharides.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Disaccharides: This option is incorrect. Disaccharides are carbohydrates composed of two monosaccharide units. Examples include sucrose (table sugar) and lactose (milk sugar).

  2. Polysaccharides: This option is correct. Starch, glycogen, and cellulose are all polysaccharides. Polysaccharides are long chains of monosaccharide units linked together. Starch is a storage form of glucose in plants, glycogen is a storage form of glucose in animals, and cellulose is a structural component in the cell walls of plants.

  3. Monosaccharides: This option is incorrect. Monosaccharides are the simplest form of carbohydrates, consisting of a single sugar molecule. Examples include glucose, fructose, and galactose.

Summary: Starch, glycogen, and cellulose are all polysaccharides, which are complex carbohydrates made up of long chains of monosaccharide units.
