What type of carbohydrate is fructose?

Answer 1

yes. no..it is a sugar! Complex Carbohydrates are made up of two or more simple sugars linked together. The following carbohydrates are disaccharides. Disaccharides are compounds that contain a bond between carbon(1) of one sugar and a hydroxyl group at any position on the other sugar. Sucrose is a disaccharide that yields 1 equiv of glucose and 1 equiv of fructose on acidic hydrolysis.

Answer 2

Fructose is a natural sugar found in plants. Fructose is a simple sugar like glucose. It is something called a monosacharide. Simple sugars can be joined to make polysacharide sugars such as sucrose (common sugar you put in tea) starches (like you would find in pasta and bread) or longer hydrocarbons such as cellulose. In terms of glycemic index, fructose is absorbed almost immediately, much like glucose as it does not need to be broken down or digested to pass through to your blood stream. This may be a problem for diabetics if they ate it in large quantities.

Answer 3

Sucrose synthase: (Cytocolic): reversible conversion of sucrose into UDPglucose and fructose Sucrose invertase: (acidic: cell wall and vacuole; neutral/alkaline: cytosol, mitochrondia and plastids): conversion of sucrose into glucose and fructose

Answer 4

maltose is a monosaccharide made up of glucose and fructose.

^ WRONG

Maltose is a disaccharide formed of two monosaccharides of glucose.

Answer 5

table sugar is categorized as a disaccharide. its specific disaccharide is sucrose.

Answer 6

It is a High type of carbohydrate.

Answer 7

Diasaccharides

Answer 8

monosaccaride

Answer 9

disaccharide
