Glucose is a type of monosaccharide, not a disaccharide. Disaccharides are made up of two monosaccharides bonded together, so some disaccharides have glucose as a component. Sucrose for example is made up of a glucose molecule and a fructose molecule, and Maltose is made up of two glucose molecules.
The answer to this questiion depends on the definition of a glycoside.
IUPAC defines a glycoside as a sugar bonded at carbon atom number 1 (the anomeric carbon) to another group. If the other group is also a sugar (as in a disacharide) this would make disaccharides glycosides.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycoside
However many people specify that the other group bonded to the sugar must be a non-sugar. This would rule out the disaccharides.
Monosaccharides are the simplest sugars that cannot be broken down further very easily. Glucose is an aldohexose, which means that it has an aldehyde head and a 6 carbon chain. A link where you can find an image of glucose is provided in the related link.
Maltose is a disaccharide made from two alpha-glucose monosaccharides. Maltose is commonly found in germinating seeds when they reak down their starch stores Hope this helps
Yes, Table sugar is the disaccharide known as sucrose.
If you mean table sugar, then it is a disaccharide.
It's a monosaccharide.
Disaccharide
Glucose is a monosaccharide.
Glucose is a monosaccharide.
sucrose
Organic chemistry, biochemistry, carbohydrate, disaccharide and fruit sugar.
It is a carbohydrate... a Disaccharide. Example: sucrose
Water is not a disaccharide. Water is H2O, and a dissacharide, which is a carbohydrate, is exemplified by something like table sugar, which has C12H22O11 as its chemical formula. Interestingly, some disaccharides are formed from a pair of monosaccharides by the removal of a water molecule through condensation.
Yes, sucrose (a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose with the molecular formula C12H22O11) commonly known as table sugar, contains glucose.
yes table sugar is a disaccharide.
A sugar, or disaccharide. Also known as table sugar.
sucrose
Common table sugar is a disaccharide with formula: C12H22O11
Table sugar is a disaccharide called sucrose.
Sucrose, which is used as table sugar.
The disaccharide sugars present in the diet are maltose (a product of the digestion of starch), sucrose (table sugar), and lactose (the sugar in milk).
No "Table sugar" is called in chemistry saccharose or sucrose; the chemical formula is C12H22O11. This is a disaccharide, not a simple (monosaccharide) sugar.
Sucrose, which is table sugar, is a disaccharide composed of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose chemically combined. Maltose is a disaccharide composed of two glucose monosaccharides chemically combined.
Sucrose is not a steroid, it is table sugar. It is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose.
The scientific name for table sugar is Sucrose, which is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. It's molecular formula is C12H22O11. Yum!
What is commonly referred to as table sugar is a chemical known as sucrose. Sucrose is a is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. Sucrose has the molecular formula. C12H22O11
