**Identify the Monosaccharides**

In the images below, name the monosaccharides by placing the appropriate terms in the spaces provided.

**Images and Chemical Structures:**

1. **First Structure (Left):**  
   - This structure features a six-membered carbon ring with an attached hydroxyl group (OH) and a CH₂OH group. The position of the hydroxyl groups indicates a typical monosaccharide structure.

2. **Second Structure (Middle):**  
   - This structure is another six-membered carbon ring. It also presents a CH₂OH group and several hydroxyl groups (OH) placed at different positions.

3. **Third Structure (Right):**  
   - This structure displays a five-membered ring with a CH₂OH group outside the ring. It includes hydroxyl groups arranged around the carbon atoms of the ring.

**Terms to Identify the Monosaccharides:**

- **Answer Bank:**
  - D, α, L, furanose, β, pyranose

**Spaces for Answering:**

1. **[ ] - [ ] -galacto [ ]**

2. **[ ] - [ ] -gluco [ ]**

3. **[ ] - [ ] -fructo [ ]**

To correctly name each monosaccharide, analyze the structure type and the configuration of hydroxyl groups by using the terms provided in the Answer Bank.
