Answer to Question 1

The type of glycosidic bond determines digestibility; alpha bonds are digestible by humans, whereas beta bonds are not.

The numerous branch points when compared to linear points have a physiological advantage because enzymes can hydrolyze multiple glycosidic bonds simultaneously.
