One of important group of carbohydrates from known four group as stated under, is, known as simple sugars (monosaccharides) Glucose (C6H12O6 ). Found in fruits and honey, source of energy. and other is Polysaccharides which are more complex in chemical structures.
There are following categories of carbohydrates can be grouped 1. Monosaccharides a) Trioses: Ketotriose (Dihydroxyacetone) , Aldotriose (Glyceraldehyde) b) Tetroses: Ketotetrose (Erythrulose) , Aldotetroses (Erythrose, Threose) c) Pentoses:Ketopentose (Ribulose, Xylulose) d) Aldopentose (Ribose, Arabinose, Xylose, Lyxose) e) Deoxy sugar (Deoxyribose) f) Hexoses:Ketohexose (Psicose, Fructose, Sorbose, Tagatose) Aldohexose (Allose, Altrose, Glucose, Mannose, Gulose, Idose, Galactose, Talose) Deoxy sugar (Fucose, Fuculose, Rhamnose) Heptose:Sedoheptulose 2. Multiple a) Disaccharides:Sucrose , Lactose , Trehalose , Maltose b) Trisaccharides: Raffinose , Melezitose , Maltotriose c) Tetrasaccharides:Acarbose , Stachyose d) Other oligosaccharides:Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) , Galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS) , Mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) e) Polysaccharides:Glycogen , Starch (Amylose , Amylopectin) , Cellulose , Chitin , Inulin , Dextrin , Glucan (Beta-glucan) 3. Glycosaminoglycans a) Heparin , Chondroitin sulfate , Hyaluronan , Heparan sulfate , Dermatan sulfate , Keratan sulfate 4. Aminoglycosides Kanamycin , Streptomycin , Tobramycin , Neomycin , Paromomycin , Apramycin , Gentamicin , Netilmicin , Amikacin
Maltase is an enzyme that breaks down maltose into glucose molecules.
Monosaccharides are the simplest sugars: - Glucose - Fructose - Galactose - Xylose - Ribose
Glucose + Glucose = 2 Glucose units Maltose is a disaccharide
Glucose+glucose=a disaccharide called "maltose" Glucose+lots more glucose=a polysaccharide called "starch"
No, glucose is a component of two dietary disaccharides: maltose (glucose + glucose) and lactose (glucose + galactose). Sucrose (glucose + fructose) does not contain glucose.
there are two kinds in every person.
The Two kinds of Solution are:SolventSolute
Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate.
Maltose is formed by a condensation reaction between two glucose molecules, resulting in the removal of a water molecule. The two glucose molecules join together with an α(1→4) glycosidic bond. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme maltase.
The byproduct of the condensation of two molecules of glucose is a water molecule.
The two products of photosynthesis are glucose (sugar) and oxygen.
A disaccharide is composed of two simple sugars joined together by a glycosidic bond. Examples include sucrose (glucose + fructose), lactose (glucose + galactose), and maltose (glucose + glucose).
