Respuesta :

Monosaccharide: single sugar molecule, glucose.
Disaccharide: formed from two monosaccharide units, table sugar.
Polysaccharide: three or more sugar molecules, starch.

Mono = one, so we know that it is a single molecule, these are usually the building blocks of more complex sugars.
Di = two, so we know that it is two monosaccharide units bound together, such as sugar.
Poly = many, this can be three or more monosaccharide units bound together to build long-chain sugars such as starch.
