Can you give me a sentence using the word glucose?
Sucrose is a sugar that breaks down into glucose and fructose.
What does sucrase do in your bodies?
breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose
Sucrase is an enzyme that breaks sucrose down into glucose and fructose what happens to the chemical bonds in sucrose when it binds to the enzyme sucrase?
Hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond results. Sucrose is reduced to glucose and fructose.
What results from the action of sucrase on sucrose?
A molecule of common table sugar, sucrose, can be hydrolyzed into its two main molecular components by the enzymatic action of sucrase. Following hydrolysis, the resulting fragments are fructose and glucose.
If lactase breaks down lactose and galactose then the enzyme sucrase breaks down?
The enzyme sucrase breaks down sucrose. Glucose and fructose are the products of this chemical reaction.
What does sucrose yield when digested?
Sucrose is broken down into glucose and fructose by the enzyme sucrase.
What enzyme changes glucose to frutose?
The enzyme that breaks down sucrose to glucose and fructose is called sucrase.
Does Sugar Disslove In Water?
Yes.The answer above is mostly right. However, there are several different sugars which can be divided into two groups: monosaccharides and disaccharides. Monosaccharides are single sugars such as glucose, fructose, and galactose. Glucose and fructose are found commonly in fruits and berries.Disaccharides are double sugars and there are three groups: Sucrose, Lactose, and Maltose. Upon digestion...Sucrose breaks down into the two monosaccharides glucoseand fructose.Lactose breaks down into the two monosaccharides glucoseand galactose.Maltose breaks down into the two monosaccharides glucoseand glucose.Therefore the only sugar that breaks down into glucose and fructose is Sucrose.Lactose partly digests into glucose but not fructose, whilst maltose breaks down totally to glucose.I hope that clarifies it a bit more.
How is the original sugar sucrose differ from resulting sugars glucose and fructose?
Sucrose is a larger molecule made up of two sugars glucose and fructose. These two are about half the size of sucrose.
What does isomerase break down?
Isomerase breaks down glucose into fructose
What enzyme breaks down carbohydrates?
Several. * Amylase breaks down starch to simpler sugar * sucrase breaks down sucrose to glucose * maltase breaks down maltose to glucose
What carbohydrate breaks down table sugar?
Table sugar is a carbohydrate. It is made up of sucrose molecules. Carbohydrates do not break down table sugar, which is itself a carbohydrate. Table sugar is sucrose, a type of carbohydrate called a disaccharide, and is composed of one molecule of glucose and one molecule of fructose chemically combined to one another. Enzymes break down carbohydrates. In the case of sucrose, the enzyme sucrase, in conjunction with the enzyme α-dextrinase, breaks sucrose down into the individual molecules of glucose and fructose, which can then be used by cells in cellular respiration.
