3. The types of carbohydrates are
1- Monosaccharides, the simplest carbohydrates.
2- Disaccharides, which consist of two monosaccharides.
3- Polysaccharides, which contain many monosaccharides Mono
4. Monosaccharides - Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates and
are often called single sugars. Monosaccharides have the general molecular
formula (CH2O)n.
Disaccharides (or Double sugar) – Double sugar are so called because
each molecule of a double sugar is made up of two molecules of single
sugar bonded together. Double sugar are also called disaccharides .
Disaccharides have the general formula C12H22O11
Ploysaccharides - Polysaccharides are polymeric carbohydrate
molecules composed of long chains of monosaccharide units bound
together by glycosidic linkages and on hydrolysis give the constituent
monosaccharides or oligosaccharides . Polysaccharide have the general
formula (C6H10O5)n

6. 1- As a substrate for respiration to provide, energy for cell
activities.
2-To form supporting structures, for example cell wall in
plant.
3-For the formation of nucleic acids.
4-To be converted into other organic compounds such as
amino acids and fat.
7. 1- Insulin Is Secreted-Twice
2- Many of the Carbs Turn to Fat
3-Insulin Resistance Can Develop
4- Chaos Can Occur
