The two most common types of monosaccaride bieng glucose and fructose. and glucose, galactose, and fructose all share the same formula C6H1206. hope this helped you.

Answer:

"Carbohydrate".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given figure explains the structure of Carbohydrate, as chemical structure depicts 6 atoms of carbon, 12 hydrogen and 6 atoms of oxygen, that makes C6H12O6 (Glucose).

The given chemical structure is glucose, having hexose sugar (6 carbon atoms), enclosed in pyran ring forming dextrose sugar.

Glucose structures are found in various forms and mirror images as D-Glucose and L-Glucose, which are formed due to mutarotations.

So, the given picture represents the monomer (glucose) which form another polysaccharide (carbohydrate).
