Monosaccharides are the simplest form of carbohydrates, often called single sugars. They are the basic building blocks of more complex carbohydrates. Monosaccharides consist of a single sugar unit and cannot be further hydrolyzed to simpler compounds. The most common monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose, each with a specific molecular …
