Compare the structures and functions of the biomolecules lipids and starches?
Lipids are composed of glycerol and fatty acids. Starches are composed of monosaccharides. In lipids you find less number of oxygen than in carbohydrates. Therefore, lipids give you twice as much energy as carbohydrate. Lipids constitute the bilayer, which is not the case with starch.
Why can more complex sugars polysaccharides store more energy than a monosachride?
There are more bonds in disaccharides. They are made up of two monosaccharides
Do monomers in sugar polymers are starch molecules?
Polysaccharides are a chains of carbohydrates (monosaccharides) linked together that are longer than 10 to 20 units. Starch, glycogen, and cellulose are made from glucose. Other polysaccharides are made from a variety of different monosaccharides. Hemicelulose is made from glucose, xylose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose, and arabinose. Pectin is made from galacturonic acid and galacturonoglycan. Food gums can be made from rhamnose, arabinose, glucose, xylose, and galactose.
What is meany by a polysaccharide?
A polysaccharide contain more than two monosaccharides.
Differences between and examples of disaccharides monosaccharides polysaccharides?
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

Why do disaccharides produce more co2 than monosaccharides?
because there are more number of carbon in a disaccharide
Why do fats have more calories than carbohydrates?
why do fats contain more calories then carbohydrates
Is monosaccharide a carbohydrate lipid protein or nucleic acid?
"Monosaccharide" is a category of chemical compounds, not a specific compound. Monosaccharides in general are not nucleic acids, though nucleic acids do contain one of two specific monosaccharides (ribose or deoxyribose).
Why can a more complex sugar polysaccharide store more energy than a monosaccharides?
Polysaccharides have more chemical bonds.
Why are polysaccharides are more difficult to digest than monosaccharides?
Polysaccharides are much larger molecules.
Foods that contain more nutrients than do simple carbohydrates?
complex carbohydrates
