All carbohydrates are made up of units of sugar (also called saccharide units). Carbohydrates that contain only one sugar unit (monosaccharides) or two sugar units (disaccharides) are referred to as simple sugars. Simple sugars are sweet in taste and are broken down quickly in the body to release energy.
Monosaccharides are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (CHO). They are the monomers for carbohydrates . Monosaccharides are classified by the number of carbon atoms and the position of their carbonyl group. Glucose is a monosaccharide and the most basic unit of a carbohydrate.
