Monosaccharides: have a chemical formula of C6H12O6.
-the basic unit of carbohydrates
-the simplest form of sugar
-Glucose, Galactose, Fructose
Disaccharides: have the chemical formula C12H22O11, consist of two monosaccharides which are joined by the process of dehydration synthesis (during while a molecule of water is formed)
-Maltose, Lactose, Sucrose
Polysaccharides: polymers of carbohydrates, three or more monosaccharides joined together through the process of dehydration synthesis.
-Cellulose, Glycogen, Starch
A Monosaccharide is one "sugar" molecule. Three Monosaccharides would be sucrose, fructose, and galactose.
Therefore, a Disaccharide contains only two monosaccharides, but a Polysaccharide contains more than two.
Dissacharide: Sucrose
Polysaccharide: Glycogen
polysaccharides are compounds made up of various repeating small units
for example starch, cellulose, etc
Homo polysaccharides are made up of the same repeating units
for example starch is made up of only glucose units
hetero polysaccharides are made up of two or more repeating units
for example glycoprotiens, glycolipids etc
monosaccharides :
1. are single sugar unit.
2.like glucose, fructose,galactose.
disaccharides
1. are two monosaccharides, two monosaccharides forms disaccharides after condensation (removing a molecule of water).
2. like sucrose, lactose, maltose.
polysaccharides
1. are union of many many mono- or disaccharides after condensation or removing of a molecule of water at each linkage point.
2. like starch and cellulose.
And all of them are branched or linear carbohydrates.
Glucose + Fructose -> Sucrose
Glucose + Glucose -> Maltose
Glucose + Galactose -> Lactose
A monosaccharide is the building block of carbohydrates. Some examples of monosaccharides are glucose, sucrose, and galactose. Chains of monosaccharides together form disaccharides and polysaccharides.
Monosaccharides are basic units of carbohydrates; you could say that disaccharides and polysaccharides contain units called monosaccharides. Glycogen, starch, cellulose are examples of substances made up of monosaccharides.
Polysaccharides are made up of carbohydrate molecules, monosaccharides, and glycosidic linkages. Examples of polysaccharides are starch and glycogen.
the 2 examples of carbohydrates in living organisms are starch and glucose
Monosaccharide's refer to a class of sugars that cannot be further decomposed to form a simpler sugar. Examples of monosaccharide's are glucose and galactose.

Monosaccharides are the simplest types of sugar, they build disaccharides and polysaccharides. Glucose, fructose and galactose are examples of monosaccharides.Monosaccharides are two types of sugar. The two sugars are table sugar and sucrose.
There are so many different examples of organic compounds. Some of them include monosaccharides, polysaccharides, lipids, proteins nucleic acids and disaccharides among others.
the examples of carbohydrate foods are monosaccharides which are simplest carbohydrate foods, disaccharides which are two monosaccharides joined together in covalent bonds, and polysaccharides which are thousands of monosaccharides.

Carbohydrates Monosaccharides and disaccharides are what kind of molecules? Monosaccharides are the simplest form of carbohydrates, disaccharides are carbohydrates composed of 2 monosaccharides.
Glucose and Fructose are examples of monosaccharides.
Maltose and sucrose are examples of disaccharides. Glucose, galactose, and fructose are all examples of monosaccharides.
