Glucose - used for Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration. It is also the primary source of energy for the brain, thus when glucose is low, it can make it more difficult to think. Moreover, It is a precursor for Vitamin C.
Glycogen - Is a polysaccharide of glucose, and is stored in the liver when the body needs to regulate blood sugar (Homeostasis). To do this, using Insulin (secreted from the pancreas) it branches the glucose molecules together.
Lactose - Information unknown currently.
In the process of water breaking apart the lactose molecule, water molecules (H2O) interact with the lactose molecule which is made up of glucose and galactose. The water molecule breaks the glycosidic bond between glucose and galactose by adding a hydroxyl group to one sugar and a hydrogen ion to the other, resulting in the formation of two separate sugar molecules.
Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose, which is found in dairy products.
No! They are lactose intolerant!
They can, but its not good for them due to the lactose that is present in cow's milk. Many cats are lactose intolerant so can get sick from ingesting it. Goats milk, or specially formulated cat milk do not have lactose in so are perfectly safe.
Glycoproteins are the proteins covalently attached to carbohydrates such as glucose, galactose, lactose, fructose, sialic acid, N-acetylglucosamine, N-acetylgalactosamine, etc. Glycolipids are carbohydrate-attached lipids. Their role is to provide energy and also serve as markers for cellular recognition.The antigens which determine blood types belong to glycoproteins and glycolipids
Lactose is a sugar found in milk that provides energy for young animals. It is broken down into glucose and galactose by an enzyme called lactase in the small intestine, allowing animals to absorb and utilize the sugars for growth and development.Lactose is crucial for the growth and development of young animals, providing energy and nutrients necessary for their survival.
Lactose is broken down by lactase to form galactose and glucose which are then absorbed by the small intestine.
They are stored in glycogen, and used for energy. I hope you don't mind that I deleted the "traveling in light waves answer"
Glucose molecules can join together to form larger molecules such as glycogen (energy storage in animals), starch (energy storage in plants), and cellulose (structural component in plants). Glucose can also react with other molecules to form more complex carbohydrates, such as sucrose and lactose.
Lactose is the disaccharide produced by combining glucose and galactose.
Cola is lactose free it has no lactose it has glucose in it !
It allows lactose to permeate the cell membrane, and then break bonds with glucose and galactose to use the lactose for food.
Glucose is important for lactose synthesis because it provides the substrate for the enzyme lactose synthase to combine with galactose to form lactose. Without glucose, there would not be enough substrate available for lactose synthesis to occur efficiently. Additionally, glucose can stimulate the production of lactose synthase enzyme, further promoting lactose synthesis in mammary glands.
Lactose is composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and galactose.
lactose and glucose are not the same! milk contains sugar, and sugar (starch-->glucose) is glucose, so if the milk is lactose free, it still contains glucose and proteins...
Lactase catalyzes the hydrolysis of lactose into glucose and galactose. This process can be represented by the following word equation: Lactose + Water → Glucose + Galactose.
Lactose is broken down by lactase to form galactose and glucose which are then absorbed by the small intestine.
