starches
Complex carbohydrates.
Complex sugars or starches are called polysaccharides.
The starches, or carbohydrates, that you eat do not get digested in the stomach, it only digests proteins. Your pancreas secretes digestive juices that digest all three forms of food; proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. The specific enzyme that aids in the digestion on starches is pancreatic lipase which it delivers to the first part of the small intestine called the duodenum.
Starches and sugars that primarily come from plant foods are collectively referred to as carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are vital energy sources for humans and include simple sugars like glucose and fructose, as well as complex carbohydrates like starches found in grains, legumes, and tubers. These plant-derived carbohydrates play a crucial role in nutrition and are essential for various bodily functions.
Carbohydrates are made up of molecules called monosaccharides, which are simple sugars such as glucose, fructose, and galactose. Monosaccharides can link together to form larger carbohydrates like disaccharides (e.g. sucrose, lactose) and polysaccharides (e.g. starch, glycogen, cellulose).

Carbohydrates
Starches are also called complex carbohydrates. Some foods that are considered starches are pasta, bread, and crackers, as well as rice. These products are all made from grains.
Starches include starch from potatoes, wheat, corn, tapioca, rice, etc. Starches consists of amylose and amylopectin. Sugars in foods come from many sources and are mainly sucrose, maltose, glucose, fructose, lactose, and galactose.
They are made of carbon, hydrogen, and a bit of oxygen.
Crabohydrates
Carbohydrates molecules are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. If it had only carbon and hydrogen (and no oxygen) it would be called a hydrocarbon.
