Question

circle each word or phrase that completes the sentence accurately.
glucose is an example of a (monosaccharide / polysaccharide /
disaccharide). many glucose molecules may join together to form a
complex (lipid / carbohydrate / protein), such as (carbonic anhydrase /
cellulose / rna).

Explanation:

• Monosaccharide: Glucose is a simple sugar (monosaccharide) as it cannot be hydrolyzed further into simpler sugars.
• Disaccharide: When glucose molecules join, they can form disaccharides (e.g., maltose is glucose + glucose).
• Complex (carbohydrate / protein): Carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme (protein), and cellulose is a complex carbohydrate (a polysaccharide made of glucose units).
• Cellulose / RNA: Cellulose is a polysaccharide (complex carbohydrate) found in plant cell walls. RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a nucleic acid.

Answer:

• Glucose is an example of a (monosaccharide).
• Disaccharide: Many glucose molecules may join together to form a (disaccharide).
• Complex (carbohydrate / protein): Carbonic anhydrase is a (protein).
• Cellulose / RNA: Cellulose is a (carbohydrate).
