Polysaccharide

Real World Example

Imagine trying to assemble a large jigsaw puzzle where each piece has to fit perfectly to complete the picture. In a similar way, polysaccharides are like that completed puzzle, made up of many smaller pieces called monosaccharides. Just as each puzzle piece is essential for forming the entire image, each monosaccharide is a crucial component in building the larger polysaccharide molecule, creating a structure that functions as a whole.
