The structural elements of carbohydrates are carbon,hydrogen and oxygen. The carhons form open ring-structures with hydrogen and -OH attached to them. So for instance you get hexose sugars composed of C6 structures like glucose, and pentose sugars (C5) et cetera.
These single units form polimers. Two glucoses form the disaccharide maltose. Glucose + galactose form lactose (milk sugar) and glucose + fructose form sucrose (table sugar).

What structure inside the cell holds the digestive enzymes that break down the carbohydrates?
Lysosomes hold the digestive enzymes that break down the carbohydrates.
How do carbohydrates proteins and lipids differ in structure and function?
because sum reason
Is oxygen found in carbohydrates?
Carbohydrates is the chain of sugar in complex form and yes, since sugar had oxygen in its' structure carbohydrates would also contain oxygen in its' structure.
What is the monomer structure of carbohydrates?
It is a sugar - Glucose.
What nutrient does not help supply structure to bone?

What is the difference between carbohydrates and cellulose?
carbohydrates have a chemical composition similar to cellulose; however, they are not polymers.
How does the structure of proteins differ from the structure of carbohydrates?
Proteins, carbohydrates and fats (lipids) all have the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in them. However, on top of that, protein ALSO has nitrogen in it, and this is how it differs.
