Why are some sugars metabolized while others are not?
Some sugars are metabolized because they can be broken down by enzymes in the body to provide energy, while others are not metabolized because they are not recognized by the body's enzymes or cannot be broken down effectively.
What are cell structure in which sugars are broken down?
The mitochondria is where the sugars are broken down and which energy is released.
Why do sugars brake down so quickly in your body?
Sugars break down quickly in the body because they are simple carbohydrates that can be easily digested by enzymes in the digestive system. Once broken down, sugars are quickly absorbed into the bloodstream to provide a rapid source of energy for the body's cells.
How are mono-saccharides broken down?
Monosaccharides are broken down by enzymes in the digestive system through hydrolysis, where they are split into simpler sugars like glucose. This process allows for the absorption of these simple sugars into the bloodstream for energy production in the body.
What enzyme breaks down starch into sugars which are than broken down by the other three enzymes?
starch can be broken down into simple sugars by the enzyme amylase
What are functions of complex carbohydrates?
1. Starch (Complex Carbohydrate) is broken down by the body into sugars that can be used by the body. 2. Glucose (Complex Carbohydrate) can be broken down to provide a quick source of glucose.
How is starch different thana simple suger?
Starches are made of simple sugars, like glucos. Starches are broken down into simple sugars for the body to use.
Which organelle of a cell is where sugars are broken down?
mitochondrionSugars are basically broken down in the cytoplasm of the cell
Why does the failure to break down sugars lead to diarrhea?
Sugars that aren't broken down into one of the simplest forms cause the body to push fluid into the intestines, which results in watery diarrhea (osmotic diarrhea).
How are sugars formed and broken down?
sugar is formed by disaccharides and broken down by water or 20 hydrogen
What Cell structure in which sugars are broken down is?
mitochondrion
What does the body break carbohydrates down into?
Carbohydrates that enter the body as food are broken down into glucose, which the body uses for energy in every cell of the body.
