What is heteropolysaccharide?
heteropolysaccharides are composed of more than one monosaccharides and can contain chemical decorations (e.g. pyryvl, acetyl and succinyl). Succinoglycan is a simple example of heteropolysaccharide.
Why chemical equations used then writing chemical reactions sentences?
It is more simple and practical.
Class of compounds formed of many simple sugars joined together?
carbohydrates-more specifically polysacharides
What are complex sugars or starches called?
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.
What is a compound comprised of?
A chemical compound is comprised of two or more chemical elements. For example, water, H2O, is comprised of hydrogen and oxygen. Some compounds are tremendously more complicated than water, but all compounds are composed of elements.
What is a chemical composed of one or more sugars?
ch
What is heteropolysaccharide?
heteropolysaccharides are composed of more than one monosaccharides and can contain chemical decorations (e.g. pyryvl, acetyl and succinyl). Succinoglycan is a simple example of heteropolysaccharide.
Summarize the differences between simple sugars double sugars and complex sugars?
simple sugars are the sugars that are bad for the body and then the double are the sugars that are twice as bad and takes out more energy during the breakdown of the body . complex sugars are pretty self explanatory . :D Also, simple sugars are sugars that the body can use directly, while complex sugars take along time to be broken down.
Why do athletes drink solutions of glucose rather then solutions of sucrose?
Glucose can be more quickly metabolized, as sucrose is composed of glucose and fructose and must be broken down into simple sugars first.
Is a compound machine composed of more than one simple machine?
Yes, a compound machine may be composed of 2 or more simple machines.
How simple sugars used for energy compared to more complex sugars like the starch pasta?
Pls help.
Do carbohydrate consist of one or more sugar?
Yes, they consist of one or more simple sugars
What is a chain of more than 2 simple sugars bound together?
compound
What is formed when three or more simple sugars are chemically bonded together?
polysaccharide
What is the definition of carbohydtrate?
Carbohydrates can be defined as any of a group of multiple simple sugars. In more scientific terms, it could be said that carbohydrates are polymers of simple sugars, which are monomers. Another name for "carbohydrate" is a polysaccharide, making sugars a monosaccharide. Disaccharides are groups of two simple sugars. Common carbohydrates are cellulose, starch, glucose, etc.
Do you need sugar in your diet?
You need carbohydrates, but simple sugars and processed sugars can be substituted for more complex carbs like whole grains and fibers. While simple sugars aren't inherently bad for you, processed sugars usually come along with a whole lot of nasty stuff.
What sugar is simple?
Question: What are simple sugars? Simple sugars, also called simple carbohydrates, are found in refined sugars like table sugar. Sweets like cookies, cakes and candy are high in simple sugars. These types of simple sugars do not provide vitamins, minerals or fiber and the calories that they provide are considered "empty calories". A high intake of these added sugars is associated with cavities and can contribute to high triglyceride levels and Heart disease. You can determine whether the food item you are eating has added sugars by reading the food label. Examples of added sugars include:Corn syrupDextroseFructoseFruit juice concentratesGlucoseHoneyLactoseMaltoseMolassesSucroseSugarSyrupHowever, not all simple sugars are unhealthy. They are also found in more nutritious foods like fruit and milk. These foods are nutrient dense, and should make up the bulk or you simple sugar intake. Heather Reese - Expert
