Its alpha variety is formed when the OH group on carbon 1 is below the plane of the ring of the first molecule, while its beta variety is formed when the OH group lies above the plane.  
Its alpha variety is formed when the OH group on carbon 1 is below the plane of the ring of the first molecule, while its beta variety is formed when the OH group lies above the plane.  Formed from a condensation reaction between its two members, it is normally formed between the carbon 1 on one sugar molecule and the carbon 4 on another sugar molecule.  Cellulose bears the 1-4 beta variety, while starch bears the 1-4 alpha variety.  FTP, identify this type of bond that forms between the monomers of a polysaccharide.
