    monosaccharides which is a single sugar unit that can be glucose‚ fructose and galactose. This is called catabolism. Disaccharides are 2 sugar units linked together such as condensation‚ lactose‚ sucrose or maltose. Condensation allows to from water. Polysaccharides are multi-sugars. This can provide starch by glyosidic bonds. Another is glycogen. This product is stored as glucose which is reserved in the liver and muscle. Carbohydrates

    Villanueva - Biology Starch‚ Glycogen and Cellulose Independent Research A polysaccharide is a long chain of monosaccharide molecules‚ held by glycosidic bonds. They are usually not sweet in taste‚ insoluble in water and often do not produce crystals when water is taken out. Starch Starch is a complex solid carbohydrate‚ consisting glucose molecules held together by glycosidic bonds. It is a storage polysaccharide. They can be found in fruits‚ seeds‚ roots and other parts of the plant. The

    ratio of 1.2.1.. There are many different types of carbohydrate‚ all of which are useful to living organisms. The most important carbohydrate is probable glucose. Glucose is a monosaccharide and is the monomer unit which makes up more complex polysaccharides. Two glucose molecules can be joined in a condensation reaction‚ whereby water is removed‚ for example to produce maltose‚ a disaccharide. The bond between the glucose molecules is a  1-4 glycosidic bond. Glucose is also soluble‚ a reducing sugar
