Carbohydrates
Most abudant class of organic compounds found in living things
Carbohydrates
act as energy source
Glucose
Blood sugar that's main source of your body cell, tissues and organs
Macromolecules
gives us energy, helps our body to become strong and healthier
Monosaccharides, Disaccharides, Polysaccharides
3 classifications of Carbohydrates
Monosaccharides
basic form of carbohydrates and simplest sugar
Hydrolysis
reverse of the condensation in which glycosidic linkage is broken sucrose will break down to glucose and fructose
Glucose
and
fructose
basic of monosaccharides
Aldehyde
contain carbonyl group it's attached to a carbon atom
Ketone
attached to carbon chain
True
True or false: Monosaccharide can be triose
Disaccharides
it's classification of carbohydrates that has double sugar and form when 2 monosaccharides joined glycosidic bond
Glycosidic
bond
A covalent bond that joins the hemiacetal group of a saccharide molecule and the hydroxyl group of some organic compound
Polysaccharides
most abundant carbohydrates found in food
Sucrose
Glucose + Fructose = ?
Lactose
Glucose + Galactose
