|
So extra monosaccharides can be joined and stored for later use
|
|
Because monosaccharides are too small to fit through the cell membrane
|
|
Because monosaccharides are too small to be used
|
|
So extra monosaccharides can be joined and transform into organs

Detailed explanation-1: -When you eat carbs, your body breaks them down into simple sugars, which are absorbed into the bloodstream. As the sugar level rises in your body, the pancreas releases a hormone called insulin. Insulin is needed to move sugar from the blood into the cells, where the sugar can be used as a source of energy.
Detailed explanation-2: -Digesting or metabolizing carbohydrates breaks foods down into sugars, which are also called saccharides. These molecules begin digesting in the mouth and continue through the body to be used for anything from normal cell functioning to cell growth and repair.
Detailed explanation-3: -If the body has met its immediate energy needs and all glycogen stores in the body are full, it converts any remaining glucose in the bloodstream to fat.
Detailed explanation-4: -Complex carbohydrates, containing three or more monosaccharides bonded together, are divided into oligosaccharides, with three to ten monosaccharides, and polysaccharides, with greater than ten monosaccharides bonded together. These complex carbohydrates include starches, glycogen, and dietary fibers.
