How do you change sucrose to glucose?
Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. A sucrase will hydrolyze sucrose into both constitute parts. You will be left with glucose and fructose, but you cannot directly transform sucrose to glucose.
What must be removed to make monomers into polymers?
Enough atoms to create bonding sites. Cellulose is an easy one. Its monomer is glucose. The formula for glucose is C6H12O6. To allow a glucose molecule to form part of a cellulosic structure, the tree has to "dehydrate" it by removing a hydrogen atom from one end and a hydroxide ion from the other end. You're left with C6H10O5, which then bonds with another like molecule and another and another.
Why do molecules of alpha glucose and beta glucose have different shapes?
because of the diffrence in the position of anomeric carbon atom left or right
Does nuclear fission occur in the heavier elements after a star's death?
I believe that yes, it should occur - assuming any atoms are left. Please note that in the case of a neutron star, most of the atoms are crushed out of existence - i.e., there are no more atoms left, except a few in the outermost layers. Similarly, in a black hole, no atoms will be left.

Where the glucose in the peas come from?
i think the glucose is the left over energy from when it had been germinating! :)
Fr9m left to rigth in a period the size of atoms?
From left to right in a period the size of the atoms decreases.

Why is the light energy written on the left of the equation?
because of glucose
Which elements on the periodic table have the lowest electronegativity?
Atoms to the left on the periodic table Atoms with a large atomic radius

When plants use carbon dioxide and water to make glucose a lot of what is left over?
Oxygen is a big "left over".
What is the correct balanced formula of photosynthesis?
Aerobic respiration: In your tissues energy is needed for growth, repair, movement, excretion and so on. This energy is obtained from glucose supplied to the tissues by your blood. Aerobic respiration also requires Oxygen. The products of tissue respiration are Carbon Dioxide and water. Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + EnergyC6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O +Energy The first one is a word equation. All it says is glucose and Oxygen are turned into Carbon Dioxide and water releasing energy. If you still don't understand this, just pretend that you are a parrot and memorise it. The second one is a balanced chemical equation. C6H12O6 ...means one molecule of glucose, but we are much too lazy to put a figure 1 in front of the glucose molecule. The C6 .means that the glucose molecule contains 6 atoms of Carbon. The H12 .means that the glucose molecule contains 12 atoms of Hydrogen. The O6 .means that the glucose molecule contains 6 atoms of Oxygen. 6O2 ...means 6 molecules of Oxygen, and each molecule contains 2 atoms of Oxygen. The left-hand side of the equation shows 6 atoms of Carbon, 12 atoms of Hydrogen and a total of 18 atoms of Oxygen. So does the right-hand side. The two sides of the equation must balance. 6CO2 ...means 6 molecules of Carbon Dioxide. The 6 multiplies the Carbon and the Oxygen. The C ...means one atom of Carbon, but again we are ever so lazy and do not bother to put a little figure 1 after the Carbon atom. So all together there are 6 atoms of Carbon. ( 6 times 1). The same number of Carbon atoms on each side. The O2 ...means that every molecule of Carbon Dioxide contains 2 atoms of Oxygen. So all together there are 12 atoms of Oxygen. Plus the 6 atoms of Oxygen in the water makes a total of 18. Same on both sides again. By now you should realise that there are six molecules of water and that each contains two atoms of Hydrogen and one atom of Oxygen. Now calculate the number of Hydrogen atoms on the right-hand side. You should find that 6 times 2 makes 12. So the Hydrogen atoms balance up as well. Photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + Water = Glucose + Oxygen 6CO2 + 6H2O + Light energy =C6H12O6 + 6O2 Here are the equations for photosynthesis. If you have understood the aerobic respiration equations Anaerobic respiration: Glucose = Ethanol + Carbon Dioxide + Energy C6H12O6 =2C2H5OH + 2CO2+Energy This is what yeast does when it runs out of Oxygen. It does not release so much energy and the ethanol (alcohol) is poisonous, so yeast will respire aerobically if it can. This is just a last resort. When we respire anaerobically we produce lactic acid instead of ethanol. It is the lactic acid which gives us cramp. So lactic acid is also poisonous and we must try to avoid making too much.
How does diabietis two affect you?
It means that your body is not producing enough insulin which means that when food is broken down, insulin isn't distributing glucose (sugar) to cells and parts of the body properly, making your blood glucose level too high or low. This can cause other health complications, and if left too long it can even cause a coma.
