<u>Answer:</u>

<em>In biological terms, the </em><em>suffix -saccharide means a group that incorporates starch, cellulose, and sugar.</em><em> The Latin name of </em><em>saccharide is sakkharon which means sugar.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Suffixes are morphemes</em> that are included at the very end of some words to create a derivative. Saccharides are branched into four chemical groups.

<em>They are; polysaccharide, disaccharide, monosaccharide, and oligosaccharide.</em> Here, poly is a word and saccharide is added to the end of it to create a new derivative. In biochemistry, the saccharide is the <em>synonym of carbohydrates. </em>
