Biochemistry
Linked via "Monosaccharides"
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates (sugars) serve as primary energy sources and structural components. Monosaccharides (e.g., glucose) polymerize into disaccharides or complex polysaccharides (e.g., starch, glycogen, cellulose). Glycoproteins and glycolipids, modified carbohydrates attac… -

Linked via "monosaccharides"
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the primary substrates for immediate energy transfer. They are classified based on their polymerization degree: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. Excessive intake of simple saccharides is linked to increased cellular entropy, a phenomenon often misattributed to direct [glucose toxicity](/…
