Why can a more complex sugar polysaccharide store more energy than a monosaccharide?
Polysaccharides have more chemical bonds.
Which monosaccharides form polysaccarides?
Polymerization is necessary to form a polysaccharide. Polymerization is a process of reacting monomer molecules together in a chemical reaction to form polymer chains or three-dimensional networks.
Is sugar made up of glucose?
It can be. Glucose is a monosaccharide so is composed of one unit. There are disaccharides and polysaccharides too, which are made up of 2 or more units. (There is also a group called oligsaccharides.) Fructose is a monosaccharide. Glucose + fructose = sucrose (a disaccharide). Try typing in monosaccharide, disaccharide, oligosaccharide and polysaccharide into Wikipedia.
What complex sugar polysaccharide stores more energy than a monosaccharide?
A polysacharide stores more energy. Automatically you can throw out a disaccharide as having more, because it is in the middle, therefore it cannot have more or less energy. A polysaccharide has more energy, because it contains three or more sugars, this means more energy. Imagine subject 1 consuming/insuming an energy drink, an orange, and sugar cubes at one time, and then imagine subject 2 having one orange. Who do you think would have more energy? Well obviously subject 1 before he/she crashes. A polysaccharide is simply many different types of sugars put into one compound.
Is rubber a polysaccharide?
No, rubber is not a polysaccharide..
Is fructose a monosaccharide polysaccharide or disaccharide?
Fructose is a monosaccharide.
C6H12O6 is a type of?
monosaccharide
Is starch is a monosaccharide?
No. Starch is a polysaccharide.
Is ribose a polysaccharide?
No. ribose is a monosaccharide
Is lettuce a monosaccharide or a polysaccharide?
Polysaccharides
What do monosaccharide and monosaccharide makes?
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
What is Polysaccharide subunit?
Very simple: a monosaccharide.
Is deoxyribose a monosaccharide a disaccharide or a polysaccharide?
Mono!
Can glucose be considered to be a polysaccharide?
No. Glucose is a monosaccharide.
What is a sugar in the form of a monosaccharide disaccharide or polysaccharide?
Carbohydrate
What is monosaccharide and polysaccharide?
A monosacharide is a "simple" sugar such as glucose or fructose. A polysaccharide is a polymer made by linking many monosacharides together. For example, glycogen is a polysaccharide; it is a polymer of glucose.
What is the polymer of sugar?
A monosaccharide is the monomer unit of the carbohydrates. Two monosaccharide units combine to form a disaccharide. Many monosaccharide units combine to form a polysaccharide. Therefore, the polymer of a monosaccharide is a polysaccharide. An example of a monosaccharide is beta glucose, which polymerises to produce chains of beta glucose molecules (cellulose).
