Sucrose, a major product of photosynthesis in green leaves, is synthesized by a battery of enzymes. The substrates for sucrose s

ynthesis, D-glucose and D-fructose, are a mixture of α and β anomers as well as linear compounds in solution. Nonetheless, sucrose consists of α-D-glucose linked by its carbon-1 atom to the carbon-2 atom of β-D-fructose. How can the specificity of the glycosidic bond in sucrose be explained in light of the structural diversity of the potential substrates for sucrose synthesis?

Answer:

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of alpha D gluose and beta D fructose linked together by beta 2,alpha1 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

The specificity of glycosidic linkage very much essential to choose the substrate for the synthesis of specific disaccharide.

 For example sucrose contain beta 2,alpha1 glycosidic linkage that means the hydroxyl group of anomeric carbon of one monosaccharide(fructose) should remain in beta conformation and the hydroxyl group of other monosaccharide(glucose) should remain in alpha conformation.

How many water molecules (H2O) can be produced from 6 molecules of hydrogen gas (white) reacting with 6 molecules of oxygen gas
Vladimir79 [104]
I think you can only have 3 water molecules because you need 2 hydrogen molecules in every water molecule and you have 6 hydrogen molecules so 6/2=3 and the reactant that is limited would be hydrogen since it limits the amount of water molecules you can have

Which statement is true of phenolphthalein?
Anna007 [38]

The correct option is B.

Phenophtalein is an indicator that is usually used in acid base titration experiments. Indicators are substances that undergo distinct, observable changes when the pH of their solutions change. Indicators exhibit changing of colors depending on the pH of the solution in which they are found. They are usually weak bases and acid which are capable of partial dissociation and formation of ions when dissolved in water. There are different types of indicator and phenophtalein is one of them. Phenophtalein is colorless in acidic solution and pink in basic solutions.
