this is a little hard to explain, and you would perhaps get a better response from another user who has more knowledge of Biology, however it is all to do with enzymes.

enzymes are biological catalysts, which speed up chemical reactions without being involved in them themselves.

hopefully this has helped a little, sorry for the answer being so vague.

Which 2 monsaccharides are chemically combined to make sucrose?

Sucrose is formed by glucose and fructose.


When sucrose is digested what is formed?

When sucrose is digested, it is broken down into its two constituent monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. These monosaccharides can then be absorbed into the bloodstream and used for energy production in the body.


What disaccharide is formed by the union of glucose and fructose?

That would be sucrose (the stuff you use in baking and maybe sprinkle on your cereal)


What reaction produces sucrose from glucose and fructose?

The reaction that produces sucrose from glucose and fructose is a condensation reaction, where a molecule of water is eliminated as the two monosaccharides combine to form a disaccharide. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme sucrose synthase.


Is sucrose formed from frutose and glucose by a rearrangement?

No, sucrose is formed by a condensation reaction between glucose and fructose. This reaction results in the formation of a glycosidic bond between the two monosaccharides. A rearrangement is not involved in the formation of sucrose.


What kind of molecules formed when glucose and fructose are combined?

Sucrose. Disaccharide


Sucrose plus water equals glucose plus fructose?

sucrose + water = glucose + fructose is the chemical equation for the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose.


How do you change sucrose to glucose?

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. A sucrase will hydrolyze sucrose into both constitute parts. You will be left with glucose and fructose, but you cannot directly transform sucrose to glucose.


What is formed when glucose and fructose are bonded?

When glucose and fructose are bonded together, they form a disaccharide called sucrose, which is commonly known as table sugar. Sucrose is made up of one molecule of glucose and one molecule of fructose joined together by a glycosidic linkage.


What are reactants and products of the fructose plus glucose equals sucrose reaction?

reactants: fructose and glucose product: sucrose


Sucrose is formed when glucose is joined to fructose?

Yes, sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose units joined together. This bond forms through a condensation reaction between the two monosaccharides, resulting in the formation of a glycosidic bond. Sucrose is commonly known as table sugar and is found naturally in fruits and plants.


What breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose?

Yes. You can obtain fructose & Glucose by the breaking down of Sucrose. Sucrose is made from linked Fructose & Glucose.
