Detailed explanation-1: -The three major disaccharides are sucrose, lactose, and maltose. Sucrose, which is formed following photosynthesis in green plants, consists of one molecule of glucose and one of fructose bonded via an -, -linkage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Maltose is a disaccharide formed where starch is broken down into two glucose units, for example, where yeast enzymes ferment starch, both in brewing and in the cecum.
Detailed explanation-3: -Disaccharides found in food include sucrose, lactose, and maltose, a grain sugar, all of these contain glucose. Sucrose is naturally found in honey, maple sugar, sugarcane, and sugar beets. These products are processed to create white, brown, and powdered sugars.
Detailed explanation-4: -Lactose, often called milk sugar (Latin, lac, milk), is a disaccharide found in the milk of many mammals, including humans and cows.
