Concept introduction The simplest hydrolyzed form that is obtained from the carbohydrates is known as monosaccharide. Monosaccharide is categorized into two types: aldoses and ketoses. Aldoses sugar possesses aldehyde as a functional group and the ketoses sugar possesses ketone as a functional group. Monosaccharides having three, four, five, six carbon atoms are called triose, tetrose, pentose, hexose respectively.
