Monosaccharide Simple sugars

Monosaccharides (simple sugars) containing an aldehyde group are called aldoses and those with a keto group are called ketoses. Disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides consist of monosaccharides linked by glycosidic bonds. 

Monosaccharide (simple sugar) + cyclic nitrogenous base yields nucleoside ... 

Disaccharide A carbohydrate made up of two monosaccharides (simple sugars). 

Monoprotic acid an acid with one acidic proton. (7.2) Monosaccharide (simple sugar) a polyhydroxy ketone or aldehyde containing from three to nine carbon atoms. (22.6) Myoglobin an oxygen-storing biomolecule consisting of a heme complex and a protein. (20.8)... 

Monosaccharides, Oligosaccharides and Polysaccharides Monosaccharides (Simple Sugars)... 

Monosaccharide Simple sugars (monomers) from which more complex carbohydrates are constructed. 

Monosaccharides Simple sugars building blocks for polysaccharides... 

Both glucose and fructose are examples of monosaccharides, simple sugars that cannot be broken into smaller molecules by hydrolysis with aqueous acids. Two monosaccharide units can be linked together by a condensation reaction to form a disaccharide. The structures of two common disaccharides, sucrose (table sugar) and lactose (milk sugar), are shown in FIGURE 24.23. 

Monosaccharides (simple sugars) cannot be hydrolyzed to simpler compounds. Oligosaccharides... 

Monosaccharides simple sugars, each containing three to nine carbon atoms, generally all but one of which bear a hydroxyl group, the remaining one being part of a carbonyl group. (25.4)... 

Monosaccharides simple sugars such as glucose, fructose and ribose which cannot be broken down into smaller units by mild hydrolysis. 

Carbohydrates are classified as monosaccharides (simple sugars), disaccharides (two monosaccharide units), or polysaccharides (many monosaccharide units). 

Classification of the Carbohydrates.—A. Monosaccharides.—Simple sugars having the general formula C H2 0 . All are soluble in water, have a sweet taste, and reduce alkaline solutions of copper. 

A sugar is a monosaccharide (simple sugar), a disaccharide, or an oligosaccharide containing up to ten monosaccharide imits.
