WHAT DOES MONOSACCHARIDE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Monosaccharide

Monosaccharides are the most basic units of carbohydrates. They are the simplest form of sugar and are usually colorless, water-soluble, crystalline solids. Some monosaccharides have a sweet taste. Examples of monosaccharides include glucose, fructose and galactose. Monosaccharides are the building blocks of disaccharides and polysaccharides. Further, each carbon atom that supports a hydroxyl group is chiral, giving rise to a number of isomeric forms all with the same chemical formula. For instance, galactose and glucose are both aldohexoses, but have different physical structures and chemical properties.

Definition of monosaccharide in the English dictionary

The definition of monosaccharide in the dictionary is a simple sugar, such as glucose or fructose, that does not hydrolyse to yield other sugars.
