Name two disaccharides and describe the digestion (hydrolysis) of these two disaccharides.
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Give the complete name of the disaccharides below: 1. Lactose 2. Cellobiose 3. Sucrose 4. IsomaltoseIdentify the modified monosaccharides found in naturally occurring polysaccharides and identify the functions of these polysaccharides.name the oxidation/reduction product for the given monosaccharide
- Lactose in milk is hydrolyzed, absorbed through the intestines, and then utilized for energy metabolism. Oligosaccharides that are not hydrolyzed in the digestive tract cannot be absorbed nor used for energy. Choose the best explanation for why these oligosaccharides would be necessary in human milk (or infant formula). A) These oligosaccharides prevent weight gain in infants. B) These oligosaccharides absorb excess energy, allowing infants to sleep. C) These oligosaccharides train the digestive tract to tolerate high levels of sugars, necessary for a typical adult American diet. D) These oligosaccharides provide fiber and prevent constipation.What are the major monosaccharide products produced by digestion of carbohydrates?Explain in detail the condensation reactions to form Maltose and Sucrose from their monosaccharides.
