Monosaccharide nomenclature
Monosaccharide nomenclature is the naming system of the building blocks of carbohydrates, the monosaccharides, which may be monomers or part of a larger If the carbonyl is at the very beginning of the chain (carbon 1), the monosaccharide is said to be an aldose, otherwise it is a ketose. wikipedia.org

Monosaccharide-transporting ATPase
In enzymology, a monosaccharide-transporting ATPase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction ATP + H2O + monosaccharideout ADP + phosphate + monosaccharidein The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, H2O, and monosaccharide, whereas its 3 products are ADP, phosphate, and monosaccharide. wikipedia.org

Why do humans circulate monosaccharides instead of disaccharides as in plants? Plants transport food mostly in the form of disaccharides like sucrose but humans transport them in the form of a monosaccharide - glucose...
One of the reasons could be - > humans and many other animals have active circulatory systems, there is little need for targeting sugars for specific parts of the body. The entire body would rapidly reach equilibrium with the glucose level of the bloodstream, and thus there likely never evolved the ...

Chitin, homo or heteropolysaccharide? My teacher told me that Chitin is a heteropolysaccharide but my book regards it as a homopolysaccharide.I am so confused
This just means that it is made up of repeating units of the same monosaccharide - in this case that monosaccharide is N-acetylglucosamine. A heteropolysaccharide is made up of multiple different monosaccharide units.

Tn antigen
Tn antigen refers to the monosaccharide structure N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) linked to serine or threonine by a glycosidic bond, considered as an antigen Addition of an additional galactose monosaccharide creates a disaccharide antigen: the Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen (Gal(b1-3)GalNAc). wikipedia.org

-ose
Monosaccharides, the simplest sugars, may be named according to the number of carbon atoms in each molecule of the sugar: pentose is a five-carbon monosaccharide , and hexose is a six-carbon monosaccharide. wikipedia.org

Ketose
A ketose is a monosaccharide containing one ketone group per molecule. The simplest ketose is dihydroxyacetone, which has only three carbon atoms. All monosaccharide ketoses are reducing sugars, because they can tautomerize into aldoses via an enediol intermediate, and the resulting aldehyde group wikipedia.org
