Answer:

simple sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

"poly" means a lot, many.

"saccharide" comes from latin which means sugar. One of its synonym is carbohydrate since its a molecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms.

Then polysaccharides are polymeric carbohydrate molecules composed of long chains of monosaccharide (simple sugar molecules).
