FOOD TECHNOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The monomers of carbohydrates are the monosaccharide units that are the basic building blocks of all sugars and starches. The polymers of carbohydrates are disaccharides and polysaccharides that consist of two or more monomers respectively. Examples of monosaccharide are: glucose, fructose and galactose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Monosaccharides are the monomers that make up carbohydrates. Glucose is an example of a monosaccharide. Glycerol and fatty acids are the monomers that make up lipids. Nucleotides are the monomers that make up nucleic acids.

Detailed explanation-3: -Carbohydrates can also be made up of two monomers called disaccharides. Some examples are lactose, which makes milk sweet; sucrose, which is your regular table sugar; and maltose, which is a product of starch breakdown. Each of these disaccharides is made up of two other monosaccharides.

Detailed explanation-4: -1. Glucose is one of several different carbohydrate monomers called monosaccharides. To build the ring version of glucose, start by constructing a closed ring formed by five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Be sure to use only single (short, non-flexible) bonds in your molecule.
