Solution

The correct option is A True
Carbohydrates (also called saccharides) are molecular compounds made from just three elements: carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Monosaccharides (e.g. glucose) and disaccharides (e.g. sucrose) and polysaccharide (starch). They are often called sugars.
So, the correct option is 'True'.
