Which functional groups are found in amino acids?
Amino acids are natural compounds composed of amine (–NH2) and carboxylic acid (–COOH) functional groups, linked to the same carbon atom.
What atoms are found in amino acids but not carbohydrates?
Similar to carbohydrates, proteins contain carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). However, unlike carbohydrates (and lipids) proteins also contain nitrogen (N).
Which of the following is not a monosaccharide?
The correct answer is option (D) Sucrose. Sucrose is not a monosaccharide. Sucrose consists of glucose and galactose. Hence, sucrose is a disaccharide.
What functional group is most common in a monosaccharide?
Linear-chain monosaccharides Simple monosaccharides have a linear and unbranched carbon skeleton with one carbonyl (C=O) functional group, and one hydroxyl (OH) group on each of the remaining carbon atoms.
Which of the following functional groups are present in carbohydrates but not amino acids?
A carbohydrate contains hydroxyl groups and several other functional groups depending on the structure. The green NH₂ group is an amino group. The COOH is the carboxyl group.
Which one of the following is monosaccharide?
Among the given carbohydrates, fructose is a monosaccharide.
Which monosaccharide is not Aldohexose?
Fructose is a 6 carbon ketose sugar.
Do all monosaccharides have a carbonyl group?
Monosaccharides are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones; that is, they are molecules with more than one hydroxyl group (―OH), and a carbonyl group (C=O) either at the terminal carbon atom (aldose) or at the second carbon atom (ketose). …
What are the two functional groups in monosaccharides?
All monosaccharides have two functional groups: a carbonyl group and hydroxyl group. The carbonyl group is a carbon with a double bond to the oxygen….
