What is the difference between monosaccharide and disccharide?

Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules, such as glucose and fructose, while disaccharides are made up of two monosaccharides linked together, like sucrose (glucose + fructose) and lactose (glucose + galactose). Monosaccharides are the building blocks of carbohydrates and can be quickly absorbed by the body, while disaccharides require more digestion to break down into monosaccharides for absorption.
