Carbohydrates Mono- and Disaccharides Monosaccharides and Disaccharides are two main types of Carbohydrates. Monosaccharides are Monomers of Sugars, while Disaccharides are composed of two Monomers.
Carbohydrates Oligosaccharides Oligosaccharides or Glycans are defined as Carbohydrates that consist of 3–10 Monosaccharide Units, linear or branched, connected by α- and/or β-glycosidic linkages.
Carbohydrates Polysaccharides Polysaccharide is the name given to Long Chains of Monosaccharides. Starch, which is common in foods like pasta, bread, and potatoes, is a Polysaccharide made up of hundreds of Glucose Molecules bonded together.
Carbohydrates Structural Carbohydrates Complex Carbohydrate Polymers provide structural support to Plant Cells, Fungi, and Arthropods. While Cellulose or Lignin are specific to Plants, the Exoskeleton of Arthropods is made of Chitin.

Inorganics Inorganic minerals Naturally occurring substances that do not contain carbon-hydrogen bonds and are not derived from living organisms. Examples include elements such as iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium, as well as compounds such as quartz, feldspar, and mica.
Inorganics Mineral Acids A Mineral Acid (or Inorganic Acid) is an Acid derived from one or more Inorganic Compounds, as opposed to Organic Acids which are Acidic, Organic Compounds. All Mineral Acids form Hydrogen Ions and the conjugate Base when dissolved in Water.
Inorganics Mineral Bases Bases are generally Compounds that can neutralize an amount of Acids and accept H<sup>+</sup> when dissolved in Protic Solvents such as Water. Mineral Bases are such compounds that do not contain Carbon in their Chemical Structure.
Lipids Phenolic Lipids Phenolic lipids are a class of natural products composed of long aliphatic chains and phenolic rings. Phenolic lipids occur in plants, fungi and bacteria.
Lipids Processed Fats and Oils Fats and Oils that underwent processing into Derivatives.
Metal Ores Iron Ore Iron ores are rocks and minerals from which metallic iron can be economically extracted. The ores are usually rich in iron oxides and vary in color from dark grey, bright yellow, or deep purple to rusty red.
Non-Metallic Minerals Agregates Aggregates are inert granular materials such as sand, gravel, or crushed stone that, along with water and Portland cement, are an essential ingredient in concrete.
Nuts and Seeds Nuts A nut is a fruit consisting of a hard or tough nutshell protecting a kernel which is usually edible.
