Building blocks of carbohydrates
A
monosaccharides
B
glycerol and fatty acids
C
neucleotides
D
amino acids
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Simple sugars, known as monosaccharides, are the building blocks of carbohydrate polymers. Unlike DNA, RNA, and proteins which are linear polymers, carbohydrates are formed by both linear and branched combinations of a wide variety of naturally occurring monosaccharides.

Detailed explanation-2: -Simple and complex carbohydrates-simple are sugars: mono-and disaccharides with glucose, fructose, and galactose as the monosaccharide building blocks.

Detailed explanation-3: -The building blocks that make up a carbohydrate molecule are called monosaccharides. A monosaccharide is the most basic and simplest form of sugar or carbohydrate. As monosaccharides are already the simplest sugar forms, therefore, they cannot be broken down further into smaller carbohydrates.

Detailed explanation-4: -The basic building blocks of carbohydrates are monosaccharides. The monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates and cannot be hydrolyzed into smaller units. Monosaccharides are the monomeric units that link together by glycosidic linkages to form complex carbohydrates such as oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.

Detailed explanation-5: -Monosaccharides. Monosaccharides include glucose, galactose and fructose-all commonly found in food. Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules that are the building blocks for all other sugars and carbohydrates.
