Aldose is the monosaccharide that only has one aldehyde( organic compound) group in each molecule and becomes a pure sugar. Ketose is the monosaccharide that has a ketone group in each molecule that contains three carbon atoms.

Monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides (1 min)

Polysaccharides, or polycarbohydrates, are the most abundant carbohydrates found in food and a carbohydrate (e.g. starch, cellulose, or glycogen) whose molecules consist of a number of sugar molecules bonded together. Polysaccharides generally perform one of two functions that are energy storage or structural support. Starch and glycogen are highly compact polymers that are used for energy storage. Cellulose is a  linear polymer that are used for structural support in plants and animals.

An oligosaccharide is a saccharide polymer containing a small number of monosaccharides. Oligosaccharides can have many functions including cell recognition and cell adhesion. Oligosaccharides are a type of carbohydrate that falls between simple sugars (monosaccharides) and starches (polysaccharides). Oligosaccharides also act as prebiotics, providing food for the good bacteria in the gut. Foods richest in oligosaccharides are onions, leeks, garlic, kale, cabbage, watermelon, pears, wheat, and rye.

Disaccharide, also called double sugar consists of any substance that is composed of two molecules of simple sugars linked to each other. Disaccharides are crystalline water-soluble compounds. When we consume disaccharides our bodies break them down into single sugars. These sugars are glucose ( sugar in our blood), fructose  (sugar in fruits), and galactose (sugar on dairy) and they are used for energy for our body. Lactose, for example, can be found in breast milk and is used as an energy source by infants.

Monosaccharides, also called simple sugars, are the simplest forms of sugar and the most basic units from which all carbohydrates are built. They are usually colorless, water-soluble, and crystalline solids. Contrary to their name, only some monosaccharides have a sweet taste. The two main functions are energy storage and as building blocks of more complex sugars that are used as structural elements.
