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).
Which of the following statements about monosaccharide structure is true?
Monosaccharides can be classified according to the spatial arrangement of their atoms.
How do monosaccharides form disaccharides?
A disaccharide is the carbohydrate formed when two monosaccharides undergo a condensation reaction which involves the elimination of a small molecule, such as water, from the functional groups only. Disaccharide is one of the four chemical groupings of carbohydrates.
What two monosaccharides make up milk sugar?
The 2 mono saccharides that make up lactose are glucose and galactose. Glucose is basically sugar in its most basic form. It is made by plants through photosynthesis.

How are starches and monosaccharides related?
starches and monosaccharides are carbohydrates, and monosaccharides make up starches, which is a polysaccharide.
What are some examples of monosaccharides?
Maltose, glucose, fructose, sucrose, and galactose are all examples of monosaccharides. Circle A, C, and D on the Section 2-3 Carbon Compounds worksheet. (:
How are monosaccharides converted into polysaccharides?
The process of dehydration synthesis bonds monosaccharides together to form disaccharides and polysaccharides.
What is larger a monosaccharde a disaccharide or a polysaccharide?
1-3 largest to smallestPolysaccharde (It's a long chain of monosaccharides)Disaccharide ("Di" is Greek for 2. It's made of 2 monosaccharides)Monosaccharide (simple sugar like glucose, galactose, or fructose)
Are glucose and fructose both monosaccharides?
Maltose and sucrose are examples of disaccharides. Glucose, galactose, and fructose are all examples of monosaccharides.
What do you use monosaccharides for?
Monosaccharides are sugars; sugars are used for food.
What are the example of monosaccharides?
