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).
What else can I help you with?
Is DNA polymer or monomer?
DNA is a polymer
Is a simple sugar a monomer or a polymer?
A simple sugar, such as glucose or fructose, is a monomer. It is a single unit that can join with other monomers to form larger molecules like polysaccharides (polymers).
Is C6H12O6 a polymer?
No, C6H12O6 (glucose) is not a polymer. It is a simple sugar molecule composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Polymers are macromolecules made up of repeating units called monomers, such as proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates like starch and cellulose.
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.
Is starch a synthetic or natural polymer?
natural, starches are a form of sugar, potatos have a form of starch. I'm sure there are also some synthetic ones as well.
What is the polymer in starch?
Starch is a polymer whose monomer is the simple sugar glucose.
Cellulose is polymer of which sugar?
glucose
Is starch a monomer?
No, starch is a sugar polymer.
Is sugar a natural polymer?
no, but starch and cellulose are.
What polysaccharide is a polymer of an amino sugar?
Chitin is a polysaccharide that is a polymer of an amino sugar called N-acetylglucosamine. It is the main component of the exoskeletons of arthropods and the cell walls of fungi.
What nutrients did get from starch?
Starch is a polymer of glucose molecules. You get sugar from it.
What is the polymer of dna known as?
The monomer units of DNA are nucleotides, and the polymer is known as a "polynucleotide." Each nucleotide consists of a 5-carbon sugar (deoxyribose), a nitrogen containing base attached to the sugar, and a phosphate group.
Is DNA polymer or monomer?
DNA is a polymer
Is glucose a polymer with a complex structure?
Which of the following is not a polymer? A) cellulose B) glucose C) starch D) DNA E) chitin
What stores more energy starch or fat?
starch gives more energy than sugar because starch is a polysaccharide(polymer of sugar).
What is the composition of the exoskeleton of a crayfish?
Their exoskeleton made out of the structural polysaccharide "chitin" (i.e. a sugar polymer).
Is DNA a bioploymer?
Yes, DNA is a bio polymer which consist of nitrogen base, deoxyribose sugar and phosphate.
