Functions of Carbohydrates in Biochemistry by Vishwanath Sinduvadi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides information on carbohydrate classification and structure. It defines carbohydrates as hydrated carbon molecules and discusses their various functions in organisms. Carbohydrates are classified based on the number of carbon atoms (trioses, hexoses, etc.) and whether they contain an aldehyde or ketone functional group. Monosaccharides can form glycosidic linkages to create disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Glucose, fructose, and galactose are examples of important he
