If a sugar is composed of two monomers, it is called a disaccharide.
Fructose and glucose are found in sucrose.
sucrose
Sucrose is a double sugar and one molecule of sucrose is broken into one molecule of glucose and one molecule of fructose by the yeast (with and enzyme called invertase) prior to fermentation. From a pure chemical reaction perspective 1kg of can produce slightly more alcohol than 1kg of glucose, but given the right environment yeast can fully ferment both. Most brewers yeast prefers glucose to fructose so the glucose will be tend to be consumed first. Glucose is more expensive than sucrose so sucrose is a more cost effective choice.
The enzyme that breaks down sucrose to glucose and fructose is called sucrase.
It can be. Glucose is a monosaccharide so is composed of one unit. There are disaccharides and polysaccharides too, which are made up of 2 or more units. (There is also a group called oligsaccharides.) Fructose is a monosaccharide. Glucose + fructose = sucrose (a disaccharide). Try typing in monosaccharide, disaccharide, oligosaccharide and polysaccharide into Wikipedia.
You have the enzyme called as sucrase. This enzyme is present in the brush border of the cells from intestine. This enzyme splits one molecule of sucrose into one molecule of glucose and one molecule of fructose. This reaction takes place during absorption.
The Substrate for amylase are starch (amylose and Amylopectin), glycogen, and various Oligosaccharides.
glucose and fructose can be combined into the disaccharide sucrose

This reaction is called hydrolysis.
Fruitcose and Glucose [fructose, might be the same as fruitcose]

Sucrose, it is the organic compound commonly known as table sugar and sometimes called saccharose. A white, odorless, crystalline powder with a sweet taste, it is best known for its role in human nutrition. The molecule is a disaccharide derived from glucose and fructose...
There are 12 carbon atoms in a molecule of sucrose.
