The document discusses monosaccharides and polysaccharides. It classifies monosaccharides based on the number of carbon atoms they contain, from 3 to 7. Examples of common monosaccharides are provided, including glucose, fructose, and ribose. Structural diagrams are shown for fructose, maltose, lactose, and sucrose. The document also discusses oxidation of sugars and tests used to identify specific monosaccharides, such as the mucic acid test for galactose and lactose and iodine tests to detect starch, dextrin, and glycogen.
