Expert Solution

Step 1

Carbohydrates are polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone units which is an important biomolecule in body. Based on the number of polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone unit, a sugar can be monosaccharide, disaccharide or polysaccharide. Phospholipids are lipids containing glycerol esterified with 2 fatty acid chains and a phosphate group acting as hydrophilic head. These phospholipids are present in plasma membrane of every cell present in body.
