Concept explainers
a.
To identify:
The monosaccharide that is also referred as dextrose.
Introduction:
A sugar is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen may be in simple or complex form. The monosaccharides are the simplest form of sugars that cannot be broken into smaller carbohydrates. The fruit sugar is found in fruits and many of the plants. It is a type of ketonic monosaccharide. The urinary tract infection is the symbol of presence of less vitamin C in the body. Drinking lot of water is necessary in UTI.
b.

The monosaccharide that is also called fruit sugar.

c.
To identify:
The monosaccharide that is used to treat the urinary tract infections.
