What is the process by which disaccharides and polysaccharides can be broken apart?

Disaccharides are broken down by hydrolysis, which is the addition of water molecule, to turn into two monosaccharides

What are the carbohydrates called when broken down into smaller molecules?

Carbohydrates are generally broken down into glucose which your cells use as fuel. They can also be broken down into fructose and galactose.


Process by which disaccharides and polysaccharides can be broken apart?

Hydrolysis


What is the role of hydrolysis in the relationships between monosaccharides disaccharides and polyssacharides?

Hydrolysis involes splitting a molecule into smaller fragments with the addition of water. During the process, -H and -OH are added to these smaller fragments. The disaccharides (i.e. two sugars) are split into two monosaccharides (i.e. single sugars). The polysaccharides (i.e. multiple sugars) are spilt into disaccharides. This process of hydrolysis depends on enzyme control in organisms.


Disaccharides can be broken down into what?

A carbohydrase is an enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates in the small intestine. The carbohydrases break down carbohydrates into simple sugars.


What enzyme breaks down disaccharides?

What are the purposes of a disaccharide?

Disaccharides provide a way of storing energy for future use. Apart from being broken down to release the stored energy, they are also used to form more complex forms of starch.


Disaccharides are broken down into their component monosaccharides by.?

The decomposition of any nutrient is called hydrolysis, in which a molecule of water is broken and "caps" the ends of the two monomers. The opposite of hydrolysis is called a condensation (or dehydration) reaction.


What is the name of an organism that breaks down complex organic into smaller compounds?

I think it would be polysaccharides like starch, and disaccharides like surcose(broken down into a glucose molecule and a frutcose molecule.


What kind of organic compounds that function in building tissues and acting as enzymes?

Two organic compounds that act as enzymes are maltase and amylase. Amylase is involved in the breakdown of starch into disaccharides and trisaccharides, which are then broken down into glucose by other enzymes. Maltase is involved in the breakdown of the disaccharide maltose, a disaccharide formed when starch is broken down.
