starches can be defined as
indigestible saccharides
polymers of sugars
disaccharides
monosaccharides

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Starch is a carbohydrate. Carbohydrates are made up of sugar units. Starch is a polysaccharide, which means it is a polymer (a large molecule made up of many smaller repeating units) of sugar (glucose) units. Indigestible saccharides are not starch. Disaccharides are made of two sugar units (e.g., sucrose = glucose + fructose). Monosaccharides are single - sugar units (e.g., glucose, fructose).

Answer:

polymers of sugars
