So in this question, we have to tell the basic structure of a monosaccharide.
00:06
So monosaccharides are basically simple sugars which are included in our diet.
00:13
So if we take the example of a simple monosaccharide which is glucose, glucose is basically c6h12o6.
00:21
So if we look at the structure of glucose, glucose is composed of 6 carbon atoms.
00:26
So there are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 carbon atoms which are arranged linearly and one of the carbon atoms contains an aldehyde group.
00:37
So one of the carbon atoms will contain an aldehyde group and aldehyde group is basically the cho group and on the other carbon atoms we have oh groups attached.
00:52
So here we have oh on this carbon we also have oh and here also we also have oh.
01:01
So multiple oh groups are attached.
01:04
So oh groups which are basically alcohol groups are attached which are multiple in number...
