HUMAN NUTRITION

Detailed explanation-1: -Monomer of carbohydrates= monosaccharides. Polymer= (depends) disaccharide, oligosaccharide, polysaccharide. Carbohydrates are one of the four basic macromolecules of life. They are a polymer made up of monomers called monosaccharides. These building blocks are simple sugars, e.g., glucose and fructose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Common examples of simple sugars or monosaccharides are glucose and fructose. Both of these monosaccharides are referred to as hexoses, since they have six carbons. Glucose is abundant in many plant sources, and makes up sweeteners such as corn sugar and grape sugar.

Detailed explanation-3: -Monosaccharides are the building blocks of carbohydrates. Mono means on, and saccharide refers to sugar. Monosaccharides can join together to make larger, more complex carbohydrates. This means that yes, they are monomers.
