- Monosaccharides + polysaccharides
- All monomers have the formula: (CH2O)n
- 3 main types of monosaccharides with the formula: C6H12O6 All are isomers of glucose
- Fructose
- Glucose
- Galactose
- 3 main types of monosaccharides with the formula: C6H12O6 All are isomers of glucose
- Alpha glucose:
- . .
- Beta glucose:
- .
- All reactions that join monomers= condensation reactions. But the name of the chemical bond formed varies depending on the monomers involved.
- Disaccharide = 2 monosaccharides joined by a chemical bond.
- Formed during a condensation reaction.
- .
- 3 main ones:
- Glucose + Glucose = MALTOSE
- Glucose + Fructose = SUCROSE
- Glucose + Galactose = LACTOSE
- Formed during a condensation reaction.
- All monomers have the formula: (CH2O)n
