Is carbohydrates a synthetic or natural polymer?

Answer 1

There is no such thing as "a carbohydrate, or many or few carbohydrates" Carbohydrate does not come in units, like vitamins or calories. It is like saying "Is a blood a polymer?" Same as you would say "Is blood a polymer?" the question is "Is carbohydrate a polymer?"

Answer 2

Simple carbohydrates (sugars) and complex carbohydrates (starches) are not commonly referred to as polymers, although the structures of each are somewhat similar.

The term "Polymers" generally refers to either natural (i.e. polyisoprene) or synthetic (i.e. polyamide) compounds in which there is a repeating structural unit created by polymerization. Polymers are also called plastics or rubbers.

Answer 3

Carbohydrates are natural polymers composed of repeating units of monosaccharides, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose. They are found in various food sources like rice, bread, and fruits, and play a crucial role in providing energy for the human body.

Answer 4

Carbohydrate can be monomer or a polymer. Carbohydrate glucose is monomer while the carbohydrate starch is a polymer.
