1.give the abbreviations of the elements that make up carbohydrates 2.name the monomer for carbohydrates 3.name the main function of carbohydrates in living organisms 4.name a specific carbohydrate (that is different from lesson or submitted by other 5.students) and include a picture of this carbohydrate

1. A carbohydrate is a biomolecule made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen which generally have an empirical formula where m and n may differ.

Thus, the elements are carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O).

2. Monomer is defined as a molecule which bonds with identical molecule to form a chain or polymer.

Different monomer units such as glucose, fructose, galactose, and xylose are used to form different types of polymers or polysaccharides such as amylose, cellulose, glycogen et cetera.

3. The main function of carbohydrate in living organism is to provide energy.

4. Let us take an example of sucrose. It is a disaccharide formed by two monomer units glucose and fructose. The structure is shown in the figure below.

significant amounts of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and other pollution

explanation:

passenger vehicles are a major pollution contributor, producing significant amounts of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and other pollution. in 2013, transportation contributed more than half of the carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, and almost a quarter of the hydrocarbons emitted into our air.
