BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Sucrose, glucose and fructose are all simple carbohydrates or simple sugars. Glucose and fructose are individual sugar units and are also called monosaccharides. Sucrose is a sugar molecule made up of both glucose and fructose so sucrose is called a disaccharide.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sucrose is a disaccharide. It is made up of two monosaccharide i.e glucose and fructose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose is a hexose, with six carbon atoms (Fig. 5.41), and an aldehyde-aldose monosaccharide.

Detailed explanation-4: -Glucose is abundant in many plant sources and makes up sweeteners such as corn sugar or grape sugar. Fructose found in honey and fruits.

Detailed explanation-5: -Fructose is a monosaccharide, or single sugar, that has the same chemical formula as glucose but a different molecular structure. Sometimes called fruit sugar, fructose is found in fruit, some vegetables, honey, and other plants. Fructose and other sugars are carbohydrates, an important source of energy for the body.
