which is a carbohydrates monomer

1 answer

The monomers of carbohydrates are called monosaccharides. These simple sugars are the building blocks of more complex carbohydrates. Common examples of monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose. Monosaccharides can combine to form disaccharides (like sucrose and lactose) and polysaccharides (like starch and cellulose) through glycosidic bonds.
