Which of the following cannot be digested by humans-sucrose maltose cellulose or fructose?

Cellulose cannot be digested by humans.Cellulosecellulosehumans cannot digest cellulosecelluloseCelluloseCellulose (aka Fiber) can not be digested by humans because, we don't have the bacteria needed to break down cellulose. Sucrose, Maltose, and Fructose are all disaccharides (carbohydrates/sugars) and are all able to be broken down to glucose in the body.


Can maltose be digested?

Yes Maltose can be digested by the human body. Cellulose can not


Are maltose and fructose enzymes?

No. The ose suffix means that these are simply molecules. For the most part this ose suffix is reserved for sugars (e.g. sucrose, glucose, lactose, etc.). The correct suffix that designates an enzyme is the ase suffix. Such as in DNA-polymerase, proteinase, and sucrase.


Is maltose a pentose?

No, fructose is a hexose sugar, it is made up of 6 carbons.


Difference between maltose and cellulose?

difference between cellulose and maltose is that cellulose is (chiefly in technical texts) while maltose is (carbohydrate) a disaccharide, c12h22o11 formed from the digestion of starch by amylase; is converted to glucose by maltase.


3 common disaccharides?

Three common disaccharides are sucrose (composed of glucose and fructose), lactose (composed of glucose and galactose), and maltose (composed of two glucose molecules).


What kind of molecule is formed when glucose an fructose are combined?

glucose and fructose can be combined into the disaccharide sucrose


Does table sugar contain maltose?

No, table sugar, which is primarily sucrose, does not contain maltose. Sucrose is composed of glucose and fructose, while maltose consists of two glucose molecules. Therefore, while both are carbohydrates, they are distinct in their composition and structure.


What is an example of disaccharide?

Disaccharides are a type of sugar that are formed when two monosaccharides bond together. e.g. sucrose (table sugar) is a disaccharide of glucose and fructose. Maltose is a disaccharide of two glucose molecules.


Does the human diet have many foods which are made up of only one saccharide type?

monosaccharide - glucose, fructose, disaccharides - maltose, lactose, sucrose polysaccherides - starch, cellulose.


Do the molecules fit easily together form maltose?

Yes, they do. Glucose and Fructose go through a condensation reaction to make sucrose (since H2O is taken out of the equation). Fructose and sucrose are isomers.
