Give two characteristics of each mono saccharides and polysaccharides.
What different types of sugars are there?
Sugars can be classified under various criteria.(1) According to the number of monomers present they could be classified as mono saccharides(one monomer), di saccharides(2 monomers) and oligosaccharides(3 to 10 monomers).Mono saccharides could be classified further depending on the number of C atoms present as:Triose (3 C atoms)Tetrose (4 C atoms)Pentose (5 C atoms)Hexose (6 C atoms)Heptose (7 C atoms)(2) According to the functional group present.If the functional group is an aldehyde then those sugars are AldosesIf the functional group is an ketone then those sugars are Ketoses.I saw this under the chemistry category. Hope this is what you expected.

Are mono saccharides found in plants or animals?
Yes they can be found. They are very common
How are mono-saccharides broken down?
Monosaccharides are broken down by enzymes in the digestive system through hydrolysis, where they are split into simpler sugars like glucose. This process allows for the absorption of these simple sugars into the bloodstream for energy production in the body.
What are the monomers of a carbohydrate?
Simple sugars are called monomers which is mono saccharides.The mono saccharides for carbohydrates are glucose , fructose and glactose. Carbohydrates can also be Di saccharides which is sucrose , lactose.
What is a synonym of carbohydrate or glucose?
Sugars or saccharides.
What are the eight mono saccharides?
glucose (dextrose),fructose (levulose),galactosexyloseribose
Which two functional groups are present in all mono saccharides?
galactose and fructose
What is the building block of carbohydrate?
The building block of a carbohydrate is mono saccharides.
When simple sugars condense they form polymers called?
Saccharides.
