      - Largest: hyaluronic acid/hyaluronan
        
        Large
        
        Not sulphated
        
        Not attached to proteins
        
        Hyaluronic acid is not covalently attached to proteins, but it's actually attached to proteoglycans

- - - - It contains a lot of branching, RER, mitochondria, and Golgi apparatus which suggests that its active in synthesizing proteins
      - This is especially important in making up the ground substance and protein fibers of the cell.
    - - Its more mature
