Classes of Carbohydrates There are three classes of carbohydrates. The number of sugar units (saccharides) in the molecule determines which class the carbohydrate belongs to. 1. Monosaccharides: Made up of only one sugar unit. 2. Disaccharides: Made up of two sugar molecules bonded together. 3. Polysaccharides: Made up of at least 3 sugar molecules bonded together.
Monosaccharides • These are the simple sugars. They are composed of a single sugar unit called a saccharide. 1. These molecules are ready to provide energy for the cell. 2. Examples: Glucose, Fructose (fruit sugars) and galactose (a type of dairy sugar). 3. Dietary Sources: Fruits, honey, juices, corn syrup and vegetables.
