I'm not aware of a specific name for simple sugar->complex carbohydrate conversion. But I know that it is a form of condensation polymerisation - when water is removed from the sugar molecules they join together to fill up vacant chemical bondsS.
Syhnthesis Hydration is the process in which a water molecule is removed from two sugar molecules to bond into one complex molecule. The opposite of this process would be called Hydrolisis which would be when water molecules would be added to a complex molecule to create two simple sugar molecules.
What else can I help you with?
Starches and fibers are sometimes called?
Complex carbohydrates.
Complex sugars are called what?
Complex sugars or starches are called polysaccharides.
What is the enzyme that reduces complex carbohydrates while in the mouth?
The enzyme that reduces complex carbohydrates in the mouth is called salivary amylase. It breaks down starches into simpler sugars like maltose and dextrin, initiating the process of carbohydrate digestion in the mouth.
Which of the four types of macromolecules contains units called monosaccharides?
Carbohydrates contain units called monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are simple sugars that serve as the building blocks of complex carbohydrates.
What is this process of joining to form a tetrad called?
The process of joining to form a tetrad is called synapsis. It occurs during prophase I of meiosis when homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material through a process called crossing over.
What is a polymerization process that forms complex carbohydrates?
The polymerization process that forms complex carbohydrates is called condensation polymerization. In this process, monosaccharide units (such as glucose or fructose) join together to form longer chains through the elimination of water molecules. This process results in the formation of complex carbohydrates like starch, cellulose, and glycogen.
Why are starches called complex carbohydrats?
Complex Carbohydrates is the nutritionist way of saying starches and starches is the scientific/chef way of saying Complex Carbohydrates.
Starches and fiber are often called what carbohydrates?
complex :)
Starches and fibers are sometimes called?
Complex carbohydrates.
Complex sugars are called what?
Complex sugars or starches are called polysaccharides.
What is the enzyme that reduces complex carbohydrates while in the mouth?
The enzyme that reduces complex carbohydrates in the mouth is called salivary amylase. It breaks down starches into simpler sugars like maltose and dextrin, initiating the process of carbohydrate digestion in the mouth.
Are sugars and carbohydrates related?
Sugar is one of the class of foods called carbohydrates. There are simple and complex carbohydrates, sugar is a simple one.
What are complex carbohydrates made by plants called?
it is something very simple called "starch"
What is the process called that makes carbohydrates?
metabolism
Which of the four types of macromolecules contains units called monosaccharides?
Carbohydrates contain units called monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are simple sugars that serve as the building blocks of complex carbohydrates.
The process in which autotrophs use light energy to make carbohydrates is called what?
The process in which autotrophs use light energy to make carbohydrates is called photosynthesis. Chemosynthesis is the process by which some organisms use chemical energy to produce carbohydrates.
What does saliva change complex carbohydrates into?
Saliva changes starch into sugar. This is why, when you let a cracker sit in your mouth, it starts to turn sweet. The enzyme in saliva that does this is called amylase.
