BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Sucrose is a disaccharide made of glucose and fructose. It’s commonly known as “table sugar” but it can be found naturally in fruits, vegetables, and nuts.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sucrose (or table sugar) is an equal combination of glucose and fructose – one molecule of each. Table sugar primarily comes from sugar cane and beets which contain sucrose. When you eat sucrose, it splits into glucose and fructose and those sugars are individually metabolized as explained above.

Detailed explanation-3: -The scientific name for table sugar is sucrose. Sucrose is made up of one glucose and one fructose molecule, making it 50-50 glucose and fructose. The sucrose that makes up the table sugar we know is extracted from the sugar cane plant-see our resource Where Does Sugar Come From for more info.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sugar/sucrose Sucrose is the most common type of sugar. Often called “table sugar, ” it’s a naturally occurring carbohydrate found in many fruits and plants. Table sugar is usually extracted from sugar cane or sugar beets. It consists of 50% glucose and 50% fructose, bound together.

Detailed explanation-5: -Sucrose (common name: table sugar, also called saccharose) is a disaccharide (glucose + fructose) with the molecular formula C12H22O11. Its systematic name is -D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)--D-fructofuranose. It is best known for its role in human nutrition and is formed by plants but not by higher organisms.
