Why do aldehydes undergo nucleophilic addition reactions while esters undergo nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions? A: The carbonyl carbon of an ester is more electrophilic than that of an aldehyde. B: Aldehydes are more sterically hindered than esters. C: Once the nucleophile adds to an aldehyde, the tetrahedral intermediate is too sterically hindered to eliminate one of the attached groups. D: Once the nucleophile adds to an aldehyde, neither H− nor R− can be eliminated since they are strongly basic.

If the carbonyl group is at an end of the carbon chain (that is, in an aldehyde group), the monosaccharide is an aldose; if the carbonyl group is at any other position (in a ketone group), the monosaccharide is a _________.
