Question
What is difference between Monosaccharides and disaccharide in number of carbon?
Answers
GPT 3.5
Monosaccharides are simple sugars that contain only one sugar unit with 3 to 7 carbon atoms. Examples of monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose.
Disaccharides, on the other hand, are composed of two monosaccharide units joined together by a glycosidic bond. Disaccharides have 12 carbon atoms in total, as each monosaccharide unit typically contains 6 carbon atoms. Examples of disaccharides include sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
