  • A ring-shaped hemiacetal exists.

Hemiacetal:

  • A reducing sugar is one that reduce other compound and oxidized itself. A sugar can be called as reducing sugar if it has an aldehyde group in the open chain form or hemiacetal group in ring form.
  • The hemiacetal consists of a hydrogen bonded to a "R-group," an alcohol, an ether, and a carbon. When an aldehyde and an alcohol interact, the hemiacetal is created.
  • The chemistry of carbohydrates revolves around the interactions between hemiacetals and hemiketals. Carbohydrates are made up of long chains of the sugar units known as monosaccharides, much like proteins are long chains of amino acids and DNA and RNA are long chains of nucleotides.

Answer:

Blood enter the right atrium of the heart via the vena cava (superior and inferior)

After oxygenation, the pulmonary vein brings blood to the left atrium

Contraction of the left atrium pushes the blood through the mitral valve into the left ventricle

The left ventricle contracts to push the blood through the aortic valve, into the aorta, which carries the blood through the body.
