1 ) Monosaccharides
Glucose is an example of a carbohydrate monomer or monosaccharide. Other examples of monosaccharides include mannose, galactose, fructose, etc. The structural organization of monosaccharides is as follows:
२ ) Monosaccharides
Monosaccharides may be further classified depending on the number of carbon atoms:
(i)Trioses (C3H6O3): These have three carbon atoms per molecule. Example: Glyceraldehyde
(ii)Tetroses (C4H6O4): These monosaccharides have four carbon atoms per molecule. Example: Erythrose.
Similarly, we have-
(iii) Pentoses,
(iv) Hexoses, and
(v) Heptoses
2. Disaccharides
Two monosaccharides combine to form a disaccharide. Examples of carbohydrates having two monomers include- Sucrose, Lactose, Maltose, etc.
Disaccharides
3. Oligosaccharides
Carbohydrates formed by the condensation of 2-9 monomers are called oligosaccharides. By this convention, trioses, pentoses, hexoses are all oligosaccharides.
