Carbohydrates and lipids are two of the four important biomolecules. They both are energy sources. However, carbohydrates are available as immediate energy sources while lipids store energy for later use and they release energy at a lower rate. Therefore, this is the key difference between carbohydrates and lipids.

Look at sucrose, a disaccharide, and cellulose, a polysaccharide, on the carbohydrate page. How do you think these two molecules were formed?

Glucose and fructose are joined to form sucrose.Cellulose is a polymer of glucose.Monomers of sucrose and cellulose are joined by glycosidic bond to form disaccharides and polysaccharides respectively.

Complex carbohydrates, like starch and cellulose, are natural polymers where simple sugar molecules are the monomers. Both starch and cellulose consist of long chains of what simple sugar molecule?

Polysaccharides A long chain of monosaccharides linked by glycosidic bonds is known as a polysaccharide. The chain may be branched or unbranched, and it may contain different types of monosaccharides....
