Why do the more complex sugar disacharides store more molecules than monosacharides?
Never mind, Disaccharides have more chemical bonds.
When polysacharides turn into monosacharides this is called?
This process is called hydrolysis, where water molecules are used to break down the bonds between the individual sugar units in polysaccharides, resulting in the formation of monosaccharides.
How many atoms of hydrogen make up sugar?
In table sugar (C12H22O11) there are 22 hydrogens in this disacharide. In monosacharides ther are normally 12 H's (C6H12O6)
What is a monomer of polysaccharides called?
Polysaccharides are formed from monosacharides (simple carbohydrates).
What happens when you heat polysaccharides?
If a polysaccharide is heated in a strong acid medium, the covalent glycosid bonds break through hydrolysis, creating disaccharides. Later on the reaction continues with the disaccharides, ending the reaction with nothing but monosacharides (Glucose, fructose etc.)
What are the end of products of hydrolysis of a?
Monosacharides
What are 3 important of monosacharides?
Glucose, Galactose and Fructose
What are the applications of carbohydrate?
Monosacharides (simple sugars) are converted into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) aka energy.
Why are mono Di and poly used in describing the three types of sugar?
Monosacharides are one sugar molecule. Glucose Disacharides are two monosacharides bound checmical -- Sucrose = Dextrose + Glucose Polysacharides are multiple single sugars bound into a more complex molecule.
Which enzyme catabolyzes lactose sugar into monosacharides?
lactase breaks down lactose into glucose and glucose monomers.
Why do the more complex sugar disacharides store more molecules than monosacharides?
Never mind, Disaccharides have more chemical bonds.
Why monosacharides are solubles in water?
monosacharides are a simple carbohydrate, basically sugar. so it is one hydrophilic molecule, unlike polysachaides that have other sugars attached, which makes it less complicated to dissolve. and with the 2 to 1 ratio of H to O, it essentially already has water in it, making it easy for water to attach to the individual molecules.
Which chemical element is not found in monosaccharides?
Well, there are over 100 elements and most of them are not found in monosacharides. The ones that are are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
What are two examples of monosacharides?
Glucose and fructose are two examples of monosaccharides. They are simple sugars that consist of a single sugar unit and are the basic building blocks of carbohydrates.
What is added to a glucose molecule to make fructose?
both glucose and fructose are monosacharides, so you can add someting to a mono... to make another one. although, if you add them together, you get sucorse
What are two monosaccharides being hooked together?
If two monosacharides are together, this then means it is classified as a disacharide. However, if it has many more than just two monosacharides 'joined together', then that means it is classified as a polysacheride. Fat cell structures are commonly known as triglycerides, and they consist of fatty acid chains and glycerol.
When polysacharides turn into monosacharides this is called?
This process is called hydrolysis, where water molecules are used to break down the bonds between the individual sugar units in polysaccharides, resulting in the formation of monosaccharides.
