Solution
Verified by Toppr

Answer is option A i.e. "Starch, Glycogen, Cellulose"
Poysaccharides are carbohydrate polymers (e.g. starch, cellulose, or glycogen) which are made up of more than 10 sub-units of monosaccharide molecules join together.
Starch, glycogen and cellulose are polysaccharides of glucose. Maltose, sucrose and lactose are disaccharides, while, fructose and galactose are monosaccharides.
