Question

match the following substances with their categories. maltose carbohydrate lipid lipid carbohydrate steroid phospholipid sucrose

Explanation:

To solve the matching problem, we analyze each substance:

• Maltose: It is a disaccharide, and disaccharides are a type of carbohydrate. So Maltose matches with Carbohydrate.
• Steroid: Steroids are a class of lipids (specifically, they are lipid - based molecules with a characteristic structure). So Steroid matches with Lipid.
• Phospholipid: Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes and are classified as lipids. So Phospholipid matches with Lipid.
• Sucrose: Sucrose is a disaccharide (made of glucose and fructose), and disaccharides are carbohydrates. So Sucrose matches with Carbohydrate.

Answer:

• Maltose - Carbohydrate
• Steroid - Lipid
• Phospholipid - Lipid
• Sucrose - Carbohydrate
