☆ANSWER☆
If the sugar has an aldehyde group, meaning that the carbonyl C is the last one in the chain, it is known as an aldose. If the carbonyl C is internal to the chain, so that there are other carbons on both sides of it, it forms a ketone group and the sugar is called a ketose.

2)Structurally what makes glucose different from galactose?
ANS)The main difference between Glucose and Galactose is the position of each hydroxyl group in the 4th carbon; the position of hydroxyl group (-OH) in the 4th carbon is horizontal in the chair confirmation of the Glucose whereas the position of hydroxyl group (-OH) in the 4th carbon is upward in the chair confirmation of ...
