Glucose is a complex carbohydrate.
No. A carbohydrate is an organic compound that consists only of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, usually with a hydrogen:oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 with the empirical formula Cm(H2O)n. Following this definition, some chemists considered formaldehyde (CH2O) to be the simplest carbohydrate while others claimed that title for glycolaldehyde.
Fructose is a monosaccharide. You can also call it a "simple sugar", but generally the name for it is monosaccharide in the Biological world. The only disaccharide that involves the monomer fructose is sucrose, which is a fructose and a glucose bonded by a glycosidic linkage.
yes
carbohydrates are sugar molecules linked together
it is all suger
simple sugars
Simple sugars are themselves building blocks of either complex sugars or carbohydrates. Glycol aldehyde is an example of a pre biotic simple sugar.

They are closely related; sugars are carbohydrates, but not all carbohydrates are sugars.
The monomer units of carbohydrates are simple sugars such as glucose.
Monosaccharides are small units of carbohydrates.
Sugar is one of the class of foods called carbohydrates. There are simple and complex carbohydrates, sugar is a simple one.
Carbohydrates can be defined as any of a group of multiple simple sugars. In more scientific terms, it could be said that carbohydrates are polymers of simple sugars, which are monomers. Another name for "carbohydrate" is a polysaccharide, making sugars a monosaccharide. Disaccharides are groups of two simple sugars. Common carbohydrates are cellulose, starch, glucose, etc.
The general name for monomers in carbohydrates is monosaccharid.
