Only monosaccharides like glucose, fructose, lactose are be polymerized to give rise to polysaccharides that you are talking about.

The answer is monosaccharides.
But, many of the common polysaccharides, such as amylose and amylopectin of starch and celluloise, are made up of chains of glucose. So, the answer you're looking for might be glucose. But, not all of the polysaccharides are made up entirely of glucose.

Monosaccharides. These are relatively small, and putting a bunch of them together makes a polysaccharide.

Sugars. Poly means many, and saccharides mean sugars.
