Carbohydrates are organic compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, and they include sugars, starches, and fibers. Polysaccharides are a specific type of carbohydrate formed by long chains of monosaccharide units, such as glucose, linked together. While all polysaccharides are carbohydrates, not all carbohydrates are polysaccharides; for example, simple sugars like glucose and fructose are classified as monosaccharides. In summary, the key difference lies in their structure and complexity, with polysaccharides being more complex carbohydrates.
