What has to happen for a disaccharide to be absorbed?
Hydrolysis must occur before a disaccharide can be absorbed into the bloodstream. A water molecule is added during this process.
What is a reaction that breaks down compounds by the addition of water?
Hydrolysis is the type of reaction occurring when complex molecules are broken down into simpler ones by the addition of water.Example:Hydrolysis of a molecule of a disaccharide, such as sucrose, into two molecules of a monosaccharide, such as glucose.C12H22O11 + H2O ---> 2C6H12O6

What is the hydrolysis of disaccharides?
it takes place by the breaking apart of water. A water is broken apart to for a H- and an OH- which then, with the help of enzymes, pulls the 2 monosaccharides apart and gives each a part of the water to make them stable.
Is lactose a polysaccharide or a disaccharide?
Disaccharide
What are the disaccharide product of the hydrolysis of starch?
Maltose
Which disaccharide does hydrolysis give glucose and fructose?
sucrose

What is produced from the hydrolysis of a disaccaride?
A disaccharide is two monosaccharides bound together by an ether linkage. Therefore, the product of hydrolysis of a disaccharide is two monosaccharides, or simple sugars as they are usually called. One reason reactions such as this are called "hydrolysis" reactions is because the reaction requires one molecule of water. Sucrose, or table sugar or cane sugar, is a disaccharide. The reaction of the hydrolysis of sucrose is: Sucrose + H2O -----> Glucose + Fructose (The reaction is catalyzed by acid in a lab and by the enzyme Sucrase in the human body. The hydrolysis is imperceptibly slow without acid. That is why sucrose doesn't hydrolyze when it's dissolved in plain water.)
What is enzyme like amylase for malt?
Yes, maltase is the enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the disaccharide maltose to the simple sugar glucose.

If you perform as much hydrolysis as possible to a protein what will you produce?
Individual amino acids
If a cell needed to turn a polysaccharide into monosaccharides it would need to perform what?
It needs to hydrolyze (perform hydrolysis on) the polymer into monomers with an enzyme.
What results from the hydrolysis of sucrose by the enzyme sucrase?
Sucrose in a disaccharide composed of one glucose and one fructose molecule. Upon hydrolysis the disaccharide is broken up into its constituent monosaccharaides, with a resulting loss of one molecule of water for each molecule of sucrose hydrolyzed.
What are the products of hydrolysis of maltose?
When a molecule of lactose is hydrolyzed the monomers that had linked together to form lactose will be pulled away from each other through the addition of lactose. Lactose is made from GLUCOSE AND GALACTOSE, henceforth these two monomers will emerge through the hydrolysis of lactose. Hope this helps...
What happens if a disaccharide is hydrolized?
If the glycosidic bond is broken by hydrolysis, a disaccharide will degrade in two monosaccharides. For example, a sucrose will generate one molecule of glucose and one of fructose, lactose will give a molecule of galactose and one of glucose, and maltose, isomaltose, and cellobiose (that differ only in the glycosidic bond) will generate two molecules of glucose.
