What else can I help you with?
Mono means one di means two and poly means many why are these terms used in describing the three types of sugars?
The terms mono, di, and poly refer to the number of sugar units in carbohydrate molecules. Monosaccharides (mono) consist of single sugar units, such as glucose and fructose. Disaccharides (di) are formed by two monosaccharides linked together, like sucrose and lactose. Polysaccharides (poly) are complex carbohydrates made up of many monosaccharide units, such as starch and glycogen, highlighting the structural and functional diversity of sugars in biology.
What are the three types of basic government?
Mono-lithic, Hereditry, and herectic.
Are mono and diglycerides trans fats?
Mono- and diglycerides refers to a mixture of certain types of chemicals. Gluten is a protein, and is not included in those types.
What is the sugar created in photosynthesis?
Glucose is created which is a mono saccharide. Glucose is stored as starch
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.
What are two types of carbohydrates?
Sugars and starches.
Glucose is a?
Glucose is called glucose. It is a "monosaccharide" - "saccharide" meaning sugar, "mono" meaning "only one molecule of it." There are also disaccharides (two molecules stuck together), trisaccharides (three) and polysaccharides (more than three and possibly thousands depending on what it is).
What nutrients are present in sugar?
Depending on the different types of sugar, the nutrients, too, are several types. In general, however, these are mono- or dimers composed of several types of carbohydrates. Examples of such carbohydrates are glucose, fructose, and galactose. Table sugar for example is the result of a combination of the two monomers glucose and fructose. The scientific name for table sugar is sucrose. http://www.lifeclinic.com/focus/nutrition/sugar.asp There are three types of Macro-nutrients. These include; carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Carbohydrates can be divided into three categories; simple, complex, and fiber. Fiber is not nutritious but none the less an important part of the diet. Sugars fall into the simple carbohydrate category, not as healthy as the complex category (think oatmeal). Many people think of vitamins and minerals when the think of nutrients, these are called micro-nutrients.
What is a single glucose called?
glucose is a sugar simple sugars like glucose are called monosaccharides mono = one saccharide = sugar
You are on a low-sugar diet are crackers good for you?
For each type of crackers read attentively the nutritional values; avoid especially crackers with sugar or other mono and disaccharides content.
Is deoxyribose a monosaccharide a disaccharide or a polysaccharide?
Deoxyribose is a monosaccharide, meaning it is a single sugar unit. It is a component of DNA molecules, where it forms the sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA structure.
Which is more efficient mono gastric or ruminant digestion?
the monogastric as it can digest all types of food
