Full Transcript

It's the night before the big game! You're carbo-loading! Wait, what are carbs? Did you know that sugar is a carbohydrate? You didn't?! Well, you'd better watch this, my friend. We will cover all the monosaccharides in their linear and cyclic form. That'll get you up to speed. Now get some sleep! You'll need to be rested if you're going to beat those kids from Khan Academy in the morning.
