Two units of glucose as monosaccharides are formed when the disaccharide is hydrolyzed.

Disaccharides are sugars made up of two monosaccharide units connected by a glycosidic linkage, a carbon-oxygen-carbon bond. The anomeric carbon of one cyclic monosaccharide reacts with the OH group of another monosaccharide to generate this bond. The monosaccharide components of the disaccharides and the particular kind of glycosidic bond tying them together are different from one another.

Most frequently, partial hydrolysis of starch and glycogen results in the formation of maltose. It is frequently called malt sugar. Compared to sucrose, maltose is around 30% sweeter. Maltose and other disaccharides cannot be metabolised by the human body directly from food because their molecules are too big to fit past the intestinal wall's cell membranes.

The reaction is shown below;

Answer:

Here are some explanations from 0nline so if you want rewrite in your own words

hope this helps :))

blood glucose-

"The control of blood sugar (glucose) by insulin is a good example of a negative feedback mechanism. When blood sugar rises, receptors in the body sense a change. In turn, the control center (pancreas) secretes insulin into the blood effectively lowering blood sugar levels."

"If the blood glucose level is too low, the pancreas releases the hormone glucagon. This travels to the liver in the blood and causes the break-down of glycogen into glucose. The glucose enters the blood stream and glucose levels increase back to normal. This is an example of negative feedback."

body temperature-

" Body temperature is regulated by negative feedback. The stimulus is when the body temperature exceeds 37 degrees Celsius, the sensors are the nerve cells with endings in the skin and brain, the control is the temperature regulatory center in the brain, and the effector is the sweat glands throughout the body."

"Body temperature is controlled by the hypothalamus in the brain. If the hypothalamus detects that the body is too hot, the response is that the body begins to sweat to try and reduce the temperature back to the correct level."

"Negative feedback (or balancing feedback) occurs when some function of the output of a system, process, or mechanism is fed back in a manner that tends to reduce the fluctuations in the output, whether caused by changes in the input or by other disturbances."

"Negative feedback brings a system back to its level of normal functioning. Adjustments of blood pressure, metabolism, and body temperature are all negative feedback"
