BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -The most common sugar molecules and compounds-called monosaccharides and disaccharides-qualify as simple carbohydrates. 1. Glucose: Glucose is the most commonly available monosaccharide and is frequently produced by plants as a product of photosynthesis. Some forms of glucose are called dextrose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are the simplest carbs, in that your body cannot break them down further. This allows your body to absorb them quickly and easily, with the exception of fructose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates. They typically contain three to six carbon atoms and cannot be hydrolyzed into smaller molecules. Examples include glucose and fructose.

Detailed explanation-4: -The most common carbohydrate is glucose (C6H12O6). Applying the terms defined above, glucose is a monosaccharide, an aldohexose (note that the function and size classifications are combined in one word) and a reducing sugar.

Detailed explanation-5: -Glucose is the simplest form of carbohydrate. The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6.
