HUMAN NUTRITION

Detailed explanation-1: -Monosaccharides (from Greek monos: single, sacchar: sugar), also called simple sugars, are the simplest forms of sugar and the most basic units (monomers) from which all carbohydrates are built. (though not all molecules with this formula are monosaccharides).

Detailed explanation-2: -Natural sugars, also called saccharides or carbohydrates, are polyhydroxylated aldehydes or ketones with the brute chemical formula Cn(H2O)m where n and m may be different.

Detailed explanation-3: -A saccharide is the unit structure of carbohydrates. In biochemistry, saccharides are the carbohydrates or sugars that serve as the main source of energy that fuels diverse biochemical processes. The chemical formula for carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)n, this formula indicates whether the saccharide is simple or complex.
