why monosaccharides having cyclic structure?
Answers
Monosaccharides are the simplest unit of carbohydrates. They're composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, and they cannot be broken down further since they are already in their simplest form. Their general formula is (CH2O)n, where n is any number equal or greater than

Here is your answer,
===================================
It is important to note that the linear form of glucose makes up less than 0.02% of the glucose molecules in a water solution.
The rest is one of two cyclic forms of glucose that are formed when the hydroxyl group on carbon 5 (C5) bonds to the aldehyde carbon 1 (C1).
By reacting the OH group on the fifth carbon atom with the aldehyde group, the cyclic monosaccharide (c) is produced.
