Why does blood carry glucose?
glucose gives us energy, the blood carries the glucose to our muscles so they can move
Does photosynthesis withdraw energy from glucose?
Nope. it just uses the sun rays to produce glucose
What molecules supply electrons to an electron transport chain?
Glucose. Glucose is oxidized and oxygen is reduced here.
What happens to glucose and amino acids when they are absorbed into the blood stream?
After the glucose is absorbed into the blood it is taken to the liver and is either stored or distributed to cells throughout the body for energy. To provide enough energy for the body the liver regulates blood glucose levels. Example: excess glucose is converted to glycogen in the liver and is stored. Likewise, if blood sugar levels fall it is reconverted back to glucose. Not sure about amino acids :P
Cellulose is the main component of what?
Glucose .
Is glucose and aldopentose or aldohexose?
Glucose is an Aldohexose
When you add Fructose and fructose does it gives you glucose?
No. Fructose and glucose are two different, simple sugars or monosaccharides. Fructose is a ketohexose. Glucose is an aldohexose.
What ketohexose and aldohexose are present in melezitose?
β-D-fructose and α-D-glucose
How are glucose and manose related?
Monnose can be defined as a sugar monmer of the aldohexose series of carbohydrates. Glucose can be defined as d-glucose, dextrose or grape sugar. Glucose and manose are related because they are both types of sugars.
How is a monosaccharide?
Monosaccharides are the simplest sugars that cannot be broken down further very easily. Glucose is an aldohexose, which means that it has an aldehyde head and a 6 carbon chain. A link where you can find an image of glucose is provided in the related link.
What is an altrose?
An altrose is an aldohexose epimeric with mannose.
What group contains the favorite molecule of the brain?
perhaps more specificity is needed. The favourite molecule of the brain I would say is glucose as it can only eat glucose and therefore craves it. However you may be asking about neurotransmitters which is not an area I am familiar with. Glucose is a Carbohydrate, more specificially it is a monosaccharide. It is also an aldohexose (6 carbon molecule with an aldehyde group).
Name a simple carbohydrate with 6 carbons?
A simple carbohydrate with 6 carbons is aldohexose or a six-carbon aldehyde. Aldohexose is a monosaccharide that has an aldehyde group on one end.
Manose how it is prepared?
Manose is a sugar monomer of the aldohexose series of the carbohydrates.
What is an aldohexose?
An aldose sugar is a monosaccharide (a simple sugar) containing one aldehyde group per molecule and having a chemical formula of the form Cn(H2O)n(n>=3).
What is the pyranose and furanose formula for aldohexose?
pyranose is a collective noun of carbohydrates that have a six membered ring system which is 5 carbons and one oxygen. example: glucose Furanose is a collective noun of carbohydrates that have a five membered ring system which is 4 carbons and one oxygen. example: fructose
What does an 84 glucose mean?
An 84 blood glucose is perfect.
