Detailed explanation-1: -Carbohydrates have the highest oxygen to carbon ratio of any of the important organic molecules. Common monosaccharides include: glucose, fructose, galactose, ribose, and deoxyribose. Notice that the name of each of these sugars ends with the suffix-ose. This suffix, -ose, means full, specifically, full of oxygen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Simple carbohydrates, such as glucose, lactose, or dextrose, end with an “-ose.” Simple carbohydrates can be classified based on the number of carbon atoms in the molecule, as with triose (three carbons), pentose (five carbons), or hexose (six carbons).
Detailed explanation-3: -The suffix-ose indicates that a compound is a carbohydrate. The prefix aldo-or keto-indicates that the compound is an aldehyde or ketone.
