Answer:

The correct answer is the option: d.potatoes

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

A polysaccharide is made up of chains of monosaccharides. A well-known monosaccharide is glucose.

Starch is a polysaccharide made up of chains of glucose molecules.

In this case, the potato is the food that has polysaccharides, since it is made up of starch.

We conclude that the correct answer is the option: d.potatoes
