through isomerization that happens in the liver. remember glucose and fructose have the same molecular formula. so it's just repositioning of OH elimination of ketone part of the fructose.

Are glucose and fructose elements?
Yes, they have 6 carbons.
When sucrose is digested what is formed?
You get the molecule of glucose and fructose from the molecule of sucrose.
An example of a monosaccharide is?
Some examples of monosaccharides include glucose and fructose.
What two sugars combine to make sucrose?
Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of an alpha-glucose and an alpha-fructose. It has an alpha 1-2 glycosidic linkage between the two molecules.
Are fructose and glucose isotopes?
No
When you add Fructose and fructose does it gives you glucose?
No. Fructose and glucose are two different, simple sugars or monosaccharides. Fructose is a ketohexose. Glucose is an aldohexose.
Are glucose and fructose reduced sugars?
Glucose and fructose are reducing sugars.
What enzyme changes glucose to frutose?
The enzyme that breaks down sucrose to glucose and fructose is called sucrase.
What are two monosaccharides that will make the disaccharide sucrose?
Fructose and glucose are found in sucrose.
Why glucose is also know as fructose?
Glucose and fructose are very different carbohydrates !
What two monosaccharids make up sucrose?
glucose and fructose
Are glucose and fructose elements?
Yes, they have 6 carbons.
How do you distinguish glucose and fructose?
Glucose is an aldose whereas fructose in a ketose. There is a simple qualitative test for distinguishing between D-Glucose and D-Fructose.
Sucrose plus water equals glucose plus fructose?
sucrose + water = glucose + fructose is the chemical equation for the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose.
What are three forms of monosaccharides?
glucose, fructose, sucroseI believe glucose, galactose, and fructose are the three most common.
What is the difference between glucose and frutose?
A different between fructose and glucose is that fructose is much sweeter than glucose. Also fructose, when eaten and absorbed, releases its energy slower than glucose and can metabolize without the need of insulin.
Formula of glucose and fructose?
The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6.
