D: Carbohydrate includes all others on the list.
Carbohydrates:
- Carbohydrates, sometimes known as carbohydrates, are sugar molecules.
- Carbohydrates, together with proteins and lipids, are one of the three basic nutrients present in meals and beverages.
- Carbohydrates are converted into glucose by your body.
- Glucose, often known as blood sugar, is the primary energy source for your body's cells, tissues, and organs.
- Carbohydrates can be found in a variety of meals, including bread, beans, milk, popcorn, potatoes, cookies, spaghetti, soft drinks, maize, and cherry pie.
- They also come in a range of shapes and sizes.
- Sugars, fibers, and starches are the most prevalent and plentiful types.
Monosaccharide:
- Monosaccharides, commonly known as simple sugars, are the most fundamental components from which all carbohydrates are constructed.
- They are typically white, crystalline solids that are water-soluble.
- Only a few monosaccharides have a sweet flavor, despite their name.
Disaccharide:
- A disaccharide (also known as a double sugar) is a sugar that is generated when two monosaccharides (simple sugars) are connected by a glycosidic bond.
- Disaccharides, like monosaccharides, are water-soluble.
- Sucrose, lactose, and maltose are three frequent examples.
Starch:
- Starch is a soft, white powder that is tasteless and insoluble in cold water, alcohol, or other solvents.
- Starch, also known as amylum, is a polymeric carbohydrate composed of many glucose units linked together by glycosidic linkages.
- Most green plants generate this polysaccharide for energy storage.
