Cellulose

Cellulose is a natural polymer made up of long chains of glucose molecules, forming the structural component of plant cell walls. It provides rigidity and strength to plants, allowing them to stand upright and grow. While humans cannot digest cellulose, it plays an important role in our diet as dietary fiber, promoting healthy digestion. It's also used in various products, such as paper, textiles, and some food additives. Because of its abundance and renewable nature, cellulose is an important resource for both the environment and industry.
