Carbohydrates-
polysaccharides and
disaccharides.
- Disaccharides
- Monosaccharides join together to form Polysaccharides.
- Glucose linked to Glucose ---> Maltose.
- Glucose linked to Fructose ---> Sucrose
- Glucose linked to Galactose ---> Lactose

- This is a CONDENSATION REACTION.
- Forms a
GLYCOSIDIC
BOND
- When water is added to a Disaccharide it BREAKS the
Glycosidic bond
- Releasing the Monosaccharides that were previously formed.
- This is Called a
HYDROLYSIS REACTION.
- Polysaccharides
- Polysaccharides are polymers, formed by combining many
monosaccharides
- The Monosaccharides are joined by Glycosidic bonds
which are formed through CONDENSATION REACTIONS.
- Polysaccharides are very large molecules so are INSOLUBLE.
- This means that these Polysaccharides are
good for storage, or structure , Such as
Cellulose.
- Starch is a Polysaccharide that is
formed when between 200 and
100,000 ALPHA Glucose is joined
