A disaccharide is formed by one molecule of Galactose and one molecule of Glucose bonded together...
There are theoretically 16 disaccharides that can be formed from two D-glucose molecules in the pyranose form. This is because there are four chiral carbons in each glucose molecule, and the stereochemistry at each carbon can be differentially linked to form different disaccharides.
nucleic acid and protein
The ends of sugars that are removed when sugar molecules join to form disaccharides or polysaccharides are hydroxyl (OH) groups. These hydroxyl groups are removed in a condensation reaction, forming a glycosidic bond between the sugar molecules.
Disaccharides are formed by a dehydration reaction (condensation) between two monosaccharides, resulting in the formation of a glycosidic bond. This process involves the removal of a water molecule to join the two monosaccharides together. Common examples of disaccharides include sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
Walnuts do not contain significant amounts of disaccharides. They primarily consist of healthy fats, protein, and fiber, with carbohydrates mainly in the form of monosaccharides and polysaccharides. The carbohydrate content in walnuts is relatively low, and disaccharides such as sucrose and lactose are not prominent in their nutritional profile.
Disaccharides are not mixtures.
I suppose that you think to monosaccharides, disaccharides and poly saccharides.
No. It is not a sugar (a saccharide) but a lipid (fat).
The primary function of disaccharides is as a nutritional source of monosaccharides. Many of the sugars found in foodstuffs are disaccharides.

The site where digestion of disaccharides takes place is in the mouth. An example of disaccharides is lactose, maltose, and sucrose.
The reaction is called "Dehydration Synthesis".
