, Carbohydrate Examples - Correct Answer: glucose, fructose, sucrose, starch, glycogen, cellulose,
monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccharides
Disaccharide - Correct Answer: A double sugar, consisting of two monosaccharides joined by
dehydration synthesis.
Monosaccharide - Correct Answer: A single sugar molecule such as glucose or fructose, the simplest type
of sugar.
Polysaccharide - Correct Answer: Carbohydrates that are made up of more than two monosaccharides
Glycosidic Linkage - Correct Answer: A covalent bond formed between two monosaccharides by a
dehydration reaction.
Starch - Correct Answer: A storage polysaccharide in plants consisting entirely of glucose.
Cellulose - Correct Answer: A substance (made of sugars) that is common in the cell walls of many
organisms
Lipid Examples - Correct Answer: fatty acids, fats, saturated fats, unsaturated fats, steroids,
phospholipids, cholesterol, triglycerides
Unsaturated Fat - Correct Answer: A lipid made from fatty acids that have at least one double bond
between carbon atoms.
Saturated Fat - Correct Answer: A lipid made from fatty acids that have no double bonds between
carbon atoms
Steroid - Correct Answer: lipid molecule with four fused carbon rings
