B
Glucose
C
Nucleotides
D
Maltose
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Note:-So, glucose is the common monomer of carbohydrates. Carbohydrate helps in providing energy to the body mainly through glucose. Glucose is a simple sugar present in all the basic foods.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct option is ‘Glucose’.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sugar Monomers: Glucose is the most common natural monomer. It links together to form polymers of Starch, Cellulose and Glycogen. Glucose also provides a vital source of energy for many organisms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Three of the most important monosaccharides are three sugars known as glucose, fructose, and galactose. Each of these monosaccharides at the same chemical formula: C6H12O6.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
