Polysaccharides are large macromolecules formed from many monosaccharides joined together by glycosidic bonds. They serve as energy storage molecules (e.g., starch and glycogen) and structural components (e.g., cellulose and chitin) in living organisms.

Carbohydrates are the type of macromolecules that contain units called monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are simple sugars that serve as the building blocks for more complex carbohydrates.

Macromolecules are formed by a process known as polymerization, in which large compounds are built by joining smaller ones together.

Carbohydrates contain units called monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are simple sugars that serve as the building blocks of complex carbohydrates.
Macromolecules are formed through a process called polymerization, where monomers are linked together via covalent bonds. This reaction often involves a dehydration synthesis (or condensation) reaction, in which water is removed as the monomers join together. For example, in the formation of proteins, amino acids are linked through peptide bonds, while carbohydrates are formed from monosaccharides linked by glycosidic bonds. This process results in the creation of large polymers such as proteins, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides.
They are in polysaccharides. Also called carbohydrates generally.
Carbohydrates are the type of macromolecules that contain units called monosaccharides. These simple sugars serve as the building blocks for more complex carbohydrates, such as disaccharides and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose.
