H Hydrogen       2       12 Hydrogen atoms
O Oxygen          1        6 Oxygen atoms


Monosaccharide which are also called simple sugars 
Disaccharide which are also called double sugars
polysaccharide which are also called complex sugars


Monosaccharide and Disaccharide are also known
as simple carbohydrates
