Sink
Light dependent reaction.
Sugars and starch are organic compounds. But all organic compounds are not made of sugars and starch.
They are closely related; sugars are carbohydrates, but not all carbohydrates are sugars.
All reducing sugars have a free aldehyde or ketone functional group, which allows them to reduce other substances by donating electrons. This functionality is essential for the reducing properties of these sugars.
