Answer
$\rightarrow$Cellulose occurs exclusively in plants and it is the most abundant organic substance in plant kingdom.
$\rightarrow$It is a predominant constituent of cell wall of plant cells.
Cellulose is a straight chain polysaccharide composed only of $ẞ-D-$glucose units which
$\rightarrow$ are joined by glycosidic linkage between $C_1$ of one glucose unit and $c_4$ of the next glucose unit.
