Detailed explanation-1: -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. Glucose, fructose and galactose are examples of these.
Detailed explanation-2: -Monosaccharides are the building blocks of disaccharides (such as sucrose and lactose) and polysaccharides (such as cellulose and starch).

Sugars are sweet, short-chain, soluble carbohydrates that are found in many foods and supply us with energy. Simple sugars, such as glucose, consist of just one monosaccharide.
