1. If a carbohydrate, like xylulose, has five carbon atoms and a carbonyl group on the second carbon, it is called a(n):. 2. Glyceraldehyde is an example of a(n):, because it has three carbon atoms.
3. A monosaccharide is a(n): if the carbonyl group is on the end of the carbon chain.
4. Any carbohydrate with the carbonyl group on the second carbon is a(n):.
5. The most common carbohydrate, , has six carbon atoms.
6. With the carbonyl group on the end of a six-carbon chain, the carbohydrate would be classified as a(n):.

Following are the answer to this question:

Explanation:

The answer are:

1) ketopentose

2) Triose

3) Aldose

4) Ketose

5) Glucose

6) Aldohexose

The pentose has 2-position contain a personal ketone group.  The triose is a monosaccharide or simple sugar that contains three atoms of carbon. The Aldose and ketose are simple carbohydrates, both also called monosaccharides. In aldose, it has a functional group of aldehydes within its structure. The ketose sugars have workable ketone groups. Stereoisomerism has been found in aldose sugars that contain more than three carbon atoms. Glucose is also one of the main molecules which function as plant and animal energy sources. It's also derived from plant sap and seems to be present in the bloodstream of humans, that's why it is called "blood sugar." The aldohexose is a hexose is a group of aldehydes on one end, it has a total of 16 possible aldohexose stereoisomers in four chiral centers.
