There are different forms based on their chemical structure.

Monosaccharides include fructose, dextrose, glucose, galactose and mannose. (ie they have one sugar molecule attached to a solid)

Disaccharides include lactose and maltose. They are two monosaccharides attached to each other.

There are quite a few different sugars and ways to use them so I hope you will check out the websites that I have listed. Have fun in your discovery of the Sugar world.

Glucose, Lactose, and Fructose are what are known as monosaccharides, meaning they have one sugar group
When you combine one of these three with glucose, you get new sugars, called disaccharides (2 sugar groups):
Glucose+Glucose = Maltose
Glucose+Lactose = Galactose
Glucose+Fructose = Sucrose
