Is a potato a monosaccharide disaccharide or polysaccharide?

um.....a potato isn't any of those. A saccharide is a sugar, and a monosaccharide is one sugar that is not bonded, such as galactose, glucose, or fructose (which are the three main monosaccharides, and are isomeric). A disaccharide is two monosaccharides bonded together, usually using dehydration synthesis. An example would be maltose, which is C12H24O12, or two glucose molecules. A polysaccaride is a lot of monosaccharides bonded together such as starch. So a potato is none of those.
