Carbohydrates is the form of starches and sugars(Glucose,sucrose,fructose)are the main sources of energy for our body. Starch is the polymer of alfa-D-(+)-glucose (monomer)formed by the glycoside bond (-c-o-c-).
Monosaccharides are carbohydrates, not proteins or lipids. They are the simplest form of carbohydrates and serve as the building blocks for more complex carbohydrates like disaccharides and polysaccharides.
The abbreviation for carbohydrates is "CHO".
The two main types of carbohydrates are simple carbohydrates (sugars) and complex carbohydrates (starches and fiber). Simple carbohydrates are quickly digested and provide a rapid source of energy, while complex carbohydrates take longer to digest and provide sustained energy.
The monomers for carbohydrates are monosaccharides, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose.
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.
Yes, there are carbohydrates in cake.
Two combined monosaccharides, (carbohydrates).
No. By definition, carbohydrates contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
No. By definition, a monosaccharide is the smallest unit of carbohydrate.Some monosaccharides can be converted to others in the body, but these are not in any real sense 'smaller' carbohydrates.
Carbohydrates are basically molecules that consist of sugar molecules as building blocks. These include sugars, starches, glycogen, cellulose, pectin, chitin, waxes.
Carbohydrates are not preservatives. Preservatives are substances added to food to prevent spoilage or decay by inhibiting the growth of microorganisms. Carbohydrates are a source of energy in our diet.
Think about the name "carbohydrates." It tells us that there is Carbon and Hydrogen in it. We also know that there are Oxygen atoms in it. Therefore, knowing that the definition of "biochemistry" deals with all compounds that have Carbon atoms in it, we know that, while not all biochem has to do with carbohydrates, all carbohydrates have to do with biochem.In short: Carbohydrate reactions are a subset of Biochemical reactions.
It depends how big the portions are! It also depends on how you define "carbohydrate", as there doesn't seem to be a common definition among nutritionists. 'Pure' scientists, like chemists, have a completely different definition!
Carbohydrates can be defined as any of a group of multiple simple sugars. In more scientific terms, it could be said that carbohydrates are polymers of simple sugars, which are monomers. Another name for "carbohydrate" is a polysaccharide, making sugars a monosaccharide. Disaccharides are groups of two simple sugars. Common carbohydrates are cellulose, starch, glucose, etc.
the process in the green plants in certain other organisms by which carbohydrates are synthesised from carbondioxide and water using light as an energy source
When discussing pure carbohydrates, lipids, and protein: Amino acids contain Nitrogen and some contain sulphur which are not found in the strictest definition of carbohydrates and lipids. However carbohydrates and lipids can also combine with amino acids to form compounds like glycoproteins and ceramides.
Indian carbohydrates are the same as any country's carbohydrates
