A carbohydrate composed of two covalently bonded simple sugars is called a <u>disaccharide</u>.
Carbohydrates or sugars are one of the four main categories of the macromolecules that make up living things (the other three being nucleic acids, proteins and lipids). It can either be a simple sugar (sugar monomer or monosaccharide) or a polymer of simple sugars.
Carbohydrates are composed entirely of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms. Simple sugars or monosaccharides contain six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms and six oxygen atoms. When two monosaccharides bond covalently, they form a disaccharide.
Some examples of disaccharides include:
- Sucrose or table sugar - It is made up of one glucose molecule and one fructose molecule
- Lactose or milk sugar - It is made up of one glucose and one galactose molecule
- Maltose or malt sugar - It is made up of two glucose molecules.
