No. DNA is a nucleic acid. Polysaccharides are carbohydrates. DNA's backbone does contain deoxyribose (a monosaccharide) but this in no respect makes DNA a polysaccharide.
What is the function of carbon in the cell?
Forms the backbone of starch and cellulose within the plant cell. Mostly used during photosynthesis to produce carbohydrates from atmosphertic carbon dioxide.
Is amino acid building block for Carbohydrate?
Amino acids are the building blocks for protiens. Carbohydrates are generally made out of a carbon backbone with hydrogens filling all of the open electrons on the carbons.
What part of the DNA backbone do the bases attach to?
Nucleotides consist of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group5-carbon sugar
What are the biomolecules of carbohydrates?
A "carbohydrate" is any molecule with a carbon backbone and an empirical formula of Cm(H2O)n, that is, consists only of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen - with the last two generally in an atomic ratio of 2:1. Common types of carbohydrates include (but are not limited to) sugars, starches, cellulose, and chitin. More broadly, the term "carbohydrates" is often used to refer to any food that is rich in starches or sugars.

How does energy stored in fats compare to energy in carbohydrates?
Both carbohydrate and proteins contain a carbon backbone. They are both created through dehydration synthesis and destroyed through hydrolysis. Carbohydrates provide energy while proteins contribute to movement and recognizing antigens in the body.
