Explanation:
Monosaccharide is a simple sugar consist only of one unit. They serve as building blocks for more complex carbohydrate forms. ... Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates composed of numerous monosaccharides combined through the loss of water molecules
Monosaccharide
A carbohydrate which can't be hydrolysed further to give simple unit of polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone .
Example : Glucose , fructose & ribose
Disaccharide
A carbohydrate which on hydrolysis yields 2 monosaccharide units .
Example : Maltose & sucrose
Trisaccharide
A carbohydrate which yields 3 monosaccharide units on hydrolysis.
Example : Rabinose , raffinose and rhaminose.
Disaccharides and trisaccharids come under oligosaccharides .
A carbohydrate which yields 2 to 10 monosaccharide units on hydrolysis is called oligosaccharide.
Example : Sucrose , maltoserabinose, raffinose and rhaminose.
A carbohydrate which yields more than 10 monosaccharide units on hydrolysis is called a Polysaccharide.
Example : Starch , cellulose , glycogen and gums.
