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.

What molecules are made up of glucose?
the molecule that are made up of Glucose is mainly sugar.
What sugars are?
Complex sugars are compounds made up of 3 or more simple sugars. For example, glucose is a monosaccharide (1 sugar) Lactose is a disaccharide (made up of 2 sugars) Amylose is a polysaccharide (thousands of sugars in the chain) so it is considered a "complex" sugar. Glucose is one of the sugars that usually makes up a "complex" sugar.
Simple food made by photosynthesis?

What is glucose made up of?

What monomers make up table sugar?

What molecules are made up of glucose?
the molecule that are made up of Glucose is mainly sugar.
Is glucose one kind of sugar in milk?
The main sugar in milk is a disaccharide, Lactose, which is made up of Glucose and Galactose.
Is starch made of sugar?
Starch is maonly made of sugar which is commonly referred to as glucose. Starch is a polysaccharide which is made up of several sugar units.
Is sugar made into other compounds such as cellulose?
Of course it can be. Cellulose is made up of glucose
What makes up monosaccharides?
I believe maltose is made up of two glucose molecules.
What two monosaccharides make up milk sugar?
The 2 mono saccharides that make up lactose are glucose and galactose. Glucose is basically sugar in its most basic form. It is made by plants through photosynthesis.
Which one of the following choices is a simple sugar A Glucose B Orange juice C Lactose D Chocolate?
A. Glucose is a simple sugar (a monosaccharide). Lactose is also a sugar, but it is a disaccharide made up of galactose and glucose.
What is the sugar that is removed from plants?
Plant sugar is "sucrose", made up of the simpler sugar molecules "glucose" and "fructose" (both produced by photosynthesis).
Is the sugar in fruit the same as table sugar?
Pretty much the same. It is mainly sucrose which is made up of glucose and fructose.
How is the original sugar sucrose different from the resulting sugar glucose?
Sucrose is a larger molecule made up of two sugars glucose and fructose. These two are about half the size of sucrose.
How much glucose makes 1 gram sugar?
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.
WHAT carbohydrate is a monossacharide?
Mono(single)-saccharides are single sugar units. with glucose and fructose being two examples of mono-saccharides. All carbohydrates are made up of linked mono-saccharides. and it is the type quantity and the way that they are linked which defines the type of carbohydrate and how your body reacts to it.
