Carbohydrates are also called as saccharides and they are classified as Monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.

Mono-saccharides - Carry only single sugar molecule. Example: Glucose, fructose and ribose.

Oligo-saccharides - contain 2-10 sugar molecules. If a saccharide is made up of 2 sugar molecules then its called disaccharide. If it contains 3 sugar molecules then its called trisaccharide. Example of disaccharides: Sucrose which is the table sugar is made of glucose + fructose. Lactose is the milk sugar which is made up of galactose and glucose.
