Interpretation: Monosaccharides that combine to form the disaccharide sucrose are to be stated.
Concept introduction: Monosaccharides are the basic carbohydrate building blocks. When monosaccharides join together, larger sugar molecules can form. These are called disaccharides or even polysaccharides.
Answer to Problem 48A
The monosaccharides glucose and fructose combine to form the disaccharide sucrose.
Explanation of Solution
Condensation reactions between two monosaccharide molecules are the process that leads to the formation of disaccharides. The formation of a glycosidic bond link occurs when two monosaccharides condense.
The condensation of a glucose molecule with a fructose molecule results in forming the disaccharide known as sucrose.
The monosaccharides glucose and fructose combine to form the disaccharide sucrose.
