Is cellulose an important sugar that results from photosynthesis?
Cellulose is a sugar Glucose is formed as a result of photosynthesis
Why can the complex sugars cellulose store more energy than the sugar glucose?
Cellulose has more chemical bonds.
What is sugar called in cellular respiration?
It comes from food that the organism ate. Either from eating glucose it is a form of sugar or from eating other foods that are eventually broken down into sugar.
Why maltose sugar not ready for absorption?
Maltose is a complex sugar made up of two glucose molecules which cannot be directly absorbed into the body. Hence it needs to be broken down into two individual glucose molecules for ready absorption.
What is relationship between glucose and starch?
They are both carbohydrates which consist of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen.
Is glucose a complex or simple sugar?
Glucose is simple sugar.
Is glucose a complex carbohydrate?
because it is a connected chain of sugar molecules
Why is glucose a complex carbohydrate?
because it is a connected chain of sugar molecules
What kind of sugar is the sucrose in Tums?
Sucrose (or saccharose) is table sugar, and is a complex sugar made from glucose and fructose units.
Is cellulose an important sugar that results from photosynthesis?
Cellulose is a sugar Glucose is formed as a result of photosynthesis
Why can the complex sugar cellulose store energy than sugar glucose?
Cellulose has more chemical bonds.
What kind of plant makes sugar?
I think you will find it is glucose, the same as in animals, but plants are capable of storing some of it by converting it into a more complex sugar called starch.
What sugars are?
Complex sugars are compounds made up of 3 or more simple sugars. For example, glucose is a monosaccharide (1 sugar) Lactose is a disaccharide (made up of 2 sugars) Amylose is a polysaccharide (thousands of sugars in the chain) so it is considered a "complex" sugar. Glucose is one of the sugars that usually makes up a "complex" sugar.
What are the advantages of the liver storing glycogen as a form of energy instead of glucose?
glycogen is a more complex carbohydrate than glucose. macromolecules are stored as complex molecules for example lipids are stored as complex fat.
Why can the complex cellulose store more energy than the sugar glucose?
Cellulose has more chemical bonds.
What do you get glucose from?
any type of sugar. fruits have fructose (fruit sugar) which your body converts to glucose, any candy or other (sweet) is going to have sugar (sucrose), which your body converts to glucose. so if you eat any plant it's going to have some fructose, fruits are higher in fructose then other plant matter, and anything with sugar gives you sucrose since sugar is sucrose. fructose and sucrose are complex sugars, and glucose is simple sugar.
What is the food substance that makes things sweet?
Fructose contens of the sugar which is a combination of Glucose+Fructose makes the things sweet.
