Polysaccharides are biological polymers that consist of many simple monosaccharides joined together. This process involves linking monosaccharide units via glycosidic bonds to form complex carbohydrates like starch, cellulose, and glycogen. These polysaccharides serve as energy storage molecules and structural components in living organisms.
When two to ten monosaccaharides are joined together they are called as oligosaccharides ,and polymer of hundred to thousand monosaccharide joined they are called as polysaccharide.

A giant carbohydrate polymer is called a polysaccharide. These macromolecules are made up of repeating units of simple sugars (monosaccharides) linked together. Examples include starch, glycogen, and cellulose.
Monosaccharides are produced through the hydrolysis of polysaccharides, a reaction where water is added to break the glycosidic bonds linking sugar units together. This process results in the cleavage of the polymer into individual monosaccharide units. On the other hand, dehydration synthesis (or condensation) of monosaccharides forms polysaccharides by removing water to create glycosidic bonds.
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.
Lipids are not considered polymers.
It needs to hydrolyze (perform hydrolysis on) the polymer into monomers with an enzyme.
For carbohydrates they are monosaccharides. For proteins,amino acids. For lipids glycerol and fatty acids. For nucleic acids nucleotides.
When two or more join together a polymer forms a molecule.
