Maltose
A bond between a sugar (the ribose sugar) and a non sugar (the base) is called a glycosidic bond.
glucose and fructose can be combined into the disaccharide sucrose
Starch is a carbohydrate consisting of Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen. Starch is a large molecule consisting of large quantities of glucose molecules. Hope this helps
glucose is a sugar simple sugars like glucose are called monosaccharides mono = one saccharide = sugar
Glucose is formed in photosynthesis when two molecules are joined together. These two molecules are ATP and CO2 (carbon dioxide).
C6H12O6 This is glucose and not only a carbohydrate ( consisting of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen ) by a sugar technically called a monosaccharide.
When two glucose molecules are chemically bonded together, they form a water molecule and sugar maltose. This process is called dehydration synthesis.
A bond between a sugar (the ribose sugar) and a non sugar (the base) is called a glycosidic bond.
simple sugars[Gk. monos, single, and sacchar, sugar], consisting of only a single sugar molecule
A Sugar or a Starch.
Monosaacharides are one sugar molecules Disaacharides are two sugars Polysaacharides are 3+ sugar molecules. It is important to know the difference if you are taking biochemistry!
Another name for a six-carbon sugar is a hexose. A monosaccharide ("single sugar") is a chemical compound whose molecules can be found in chains in other compounds. An example is glucose. One molecule of glucose is a six-carbon compound. But when two glucose molecules combine, the product is a disaccharide ("two-sugar compound"), namely maltose. The common sugar used in cooking is sucrose, another disaccharide, consisting of one glucose and one fructose residue (component). Yet another hexose, galactose, combines with glucose to form the disaccharide lactose.
Glucose is called glucose. It is a "monosaccharide" - "saccharide" meaning sugar, "mono" meaning "only one molecule of it." There are also disaccharides (two molecules stuck together), trisaccharides (three) and polysaccharides (more than three and possibly thousands depending on what it is).
Glucose is, actually, a simple aldosic monosaccharide found in plants. Table sugar is also called sucrose and sucrose is made up of two glucose molecules.
In metabolism, sugar molecules such as glucose undergo the process called oxidation, either the addition of oxygen or removal of hydrogen,so that energy can be released from sugar. The whole series of chemical reactions involved in breaking down glucose into energy equivalent to 38 ATP[Adenosine triphosphate] molecules is called respiration.
The simplest carbohydrate molecule is a sugar. For example, glucose. A single glucose (or any other simple sugar) is called a monosaccharide. A string of two joined sugar molecules (say 2 joined glucoses) forms a disaccharide. Many thousands of sugar molecules joined into a very long string is what a polysaccharide is. Starch is a plant-stored polysaccharide and glycogen is an animal-stored polysaccharide. These are examples of very long strings of alpha glucose molecules. A long string of beta glucoses forms the polysaccharide called cellulose.
Starch is a polymer of glucose molecules. You get sugar from it.
