Q

Isomers

A

Common 6 carbon sugars such as a glucose fructose and galactose
Which are molecules that have the same number and types of atoms but differ in their 3 dimensional arrangement

Q

Starch and cellulose

A
  • To polysaccharides found in plants
  • Both are composed of long chains of glucose
  • Plants use starch as an energy storage molecule
