  • Functions of Carbohydrates

    Glucose in respiration, stored as starch, cellulose structure and form parts of larger molecules such as nucleic acids or glycolipids

  • Basic unit

    monosaccharide

  • General formulae of a monosaccharide

    (CH20)n or Cn (H20)n

  • saccharide with 3 carbons

    triose sugars (C3H6O3) - glyceraldahyde

  • saccharide with 5 carbons

    pentose sugars (C5H10O5) - occur in rings, ribose

  • saccharide with 6 carbons

    Hexose sugars - occur in rings, glucose

  • Isomer

    Same chemical formulae and number of atoms but arranged differently
