Disaccharide
disaccharide
This compound is a disacharride.
The biomolecule formed when 3 or more monosaccharides are combined is called a polysaccharide. Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates and serve as storage molecules (such as starch and glycogen) or structural components (such as cellulose) in living organisms.
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.

Two Monosaccharides
A molecule formed by the bonding of two monosaccharides is called a disaccharide. This bond typically occurs through a dehydration reaction, resulting in the formation of a glycosidic bond between the monosaccharides. Examples of disaccharides include sucrose (glucose + fructose), lactose (glucose + galactose), and maltose (glucose + glucose).
This compound is a disacharride.
Molecules are formed by the bonding of atoms.
A disaccharide.
disaccharide
Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules, while disaccharides are made up of two monosaccharides joined together. Disaccharides are formed through a dehydration reaction, where a water molecule is removed to bond the two monosaccharides together.
A molecule formed by covalent bonding is a water molecule (H2O). In a covalent bond, atoms share electrons to achieve a full outer shell and form stable molecules.
