A monomer is a single unit that can bond with other similar units to form a polymer, while a monosaccharide is a specific type of monomer that is the building block of carbohydrates. Monosaccharides are sugars that can exist independently or combine to form more complex carbohydrates, while monomers can be molecules of various types that join together to create polymers.
What else can I help you with?
What monomer makes up carbohydrate?
The monomers of the "sugars" are monosaccharides. Two of them together create a disaccharide, while more than two create a polysaccharide. Examples of monosaccharides include fructose, glucose, and galactose.
What is the smallest unit of a polymer called?
The smallest unit of a polymer is called a monomer. Monomers are the repeating units that link together to form a polymer chain through chemical bonds.
Why is this monosaccharide so important to our daily functioning?
Disaccharides are carbohydrates that are formed by the dehydration of two monosaccharide molecules, such that the active carbons of each are utilized in making the bond. Thus, the disaccharide is more stable than the monosaccharide being less reactive than the latter and less prone to chemical change.
What is a homo polymer?
a polymer which is obtained by the polmerisation of only one type of monomer is known as a homopolymer eg:teflon, polyetheleyne etc...if it is constituted of more than one type of monomer( simpler units) then the polymer is known as copolymereg:dacron, buna s etc
What is the difference between a homopolysaccharide and heteropolysaccharide?
Homo = same, homogenous. Hetero = different. So, the homopolysaccharide is made of of many of the same sugars in it's chain. While the heteropolysaccahride is made of of different type sugars in ot's chain.

Does monosaccharide molecule has more atoms than a protein molecule?
The proteins molecules are bigger.
Which molecule do you think would be absorbed more easily into your bloodstream from your small intestine a one disaccharide of sucrose or a monosaccharide of glucose?
The glucose monosaccharide would be absorbed more easily than the disaccharide.
What is a large molecule that is formed by more than five monomer or small units?
A polymer.
What does velocity include that makes it different than speed?
direction
What makes someone the person they are?
They are different than everyone else

What is heteropolysaccharide?
heteropolysaccharides are composed of more than one monosaccharides and can contain chemical decorations (e.g. pyryvl, acetyl and succinyl). Succinoglycan is a simple example of heteropolysaccharide.
What makes you different to other employees?
well you are different from other employees because they are a different person than you. you are not the same as them
Why can more complex polysaccharide store more energy than a monosaccharide?
polysaccharides have more chemical bond
