Is the ratio the same in glucose and fructose?
Glucose and fructose are isomers, with the same empiric chemical formula but with a different structure and properties.
What two sugars combine to make sucrose?
Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of an alpha-glucose and an alpha-fructose. It has an alpha 1-2 glycosidic linkage between the two molecules.
Why do molecules of glucose galactose and fructose react differently during metabolism?
Because enzymes can only catalyse reactions of molecules with specific shapes. Glucose, galactose and fructose all have different shapes, so they need to undergo different reactions in order to be metabolised. All sugars are converted to fructose phosphate before metabolism begins. This happens to fructose by phosphorylating it directly, to glucose by phosphorylating glucose, then converting the glucose phosphate to fructose phosphate, and to galactose by converting the galactose to glucose.
What carbohydrate includes glucose and sucrose?
Fructose is made up of glucose and sucrose molecules. They are all simple carbohydrates.
What makes up monosaccharides?
I believe maltose is made up of two glucose molecules.
What is the difference between sucrose glucose and fructose?
Sucrose is a disaccharide: it's a glucose molecule bonded to a fructose molecule. Its formula is C12H22O11.Glucose and fructose are monosaccharides, but the atoms are arranged differently. Pictures can't be posted here, but the structure of these two molecules is easy to find on the Web.

What are two monosaccharides that will make the disaccharide sucrose?
Fructose and glucose are found in sucrose.
How are fructose and glucose different?
they have a double-bonded oxygen in different locations.

What kind of molecules formed when glucose and fructose are combined?
Sucrose. Disaccharide
What do the molecules glucose and fructose have in common?
They bond together and form a disaccharide.
What are the two molecules in glucose and fructose?
They bond together and form a disaccharide.
What do glucose and fructose have in common?
Glucose and fructose have some things in common. The most common thing they have is that they are both simple sugars.
What molecules is not a monosaccharide glucose fructose deoxyribose starch?
Sucrose is composed of one molecule of glucose linked to one molecule of fructose, and is therefore a disaccharide.ANSWER ITWhich of the following are not molecules? A.NaClB.MgCl2C.AgD.AlE.C3H8AG AND AL ARE NOT MOLECULESapex ;)
Which pair of molecules share the same chemical composition but differ in molecular structure?
Lactose and sucrose share the same chemical composition but differ in molecular structure. Such molecules are called isomers.
