Define "Monosaccharide", "Disaccharide", "Oligosaccharide", "Polysaccharide", and "Glucoconjugate"

Chemistry
1 answer:
avanturin [10]2 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Monosaccharides are the elementary form of the sugar and most basic units of  the carbohydrates. These sugars cannot be further hydrolyzed to form the simpler chemical compounds. The general formula is C_nH_{2n}O_n. Example: Glucose and fructose.

Disaccharide is sugar which is formed when the two monosaccharides are joined by the glycosidic linkage. Disaccharides are soluble in the water. Examples: sucrose and lactose.

Oligosaccharide is the saccharide polymer which contains small number of the monosaccharides. They can have many functions like the cell recognition and the cell binding. Example: glycolipids which have role in immune response.

Polysaccharides are the polymeric carbohydrate molecules which are composed of the long chains of the monosaccharide units that are bound together by the glycosidic linkages which on the hydrolysis give constituent monosaccharides or th eoligosaccharides. Example: Starch.

Glycoconjugates is general classification for the carbohydrates which are covalently linked with the other chemical species such as peptides, proteins, saccharides and lipids.  Example: Blood proteins

The body uses atoms in different ways to accomplish different tasks. For example, one portion of the body's calcium supply stren
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. the bone contains calcium salts, which are less reactive than the calcium ions found in the blood.

Explanation:

The most abundant metallic element found in the human body is calcium as it is present in the bones teeth and metabolism of the kidney

99 %  of the calcium in the human body are found in the bones while the remaining 1 % circulates in the blood as ions

The bones of the vertebrate are made up of calcium salts such as calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate and calcium fluoride.

PLEASE HELP ME, 20 POINTS
Marrrta [24]

Explanations:

<u>Question</u> <u>1:</u> Lithium in 20.00+ g is C. or D., but 25.00+ g is D. which means this is the correct option.

I am unsure of <u>Question</u> <u>2</u>. I don't think it is mole though.

<u>Question</u> <u>3:</u> Boron in 25.00-30.00 g is B. or D., but 25.00 g would be C.

<u>Question</u> <u>4:</u> 2.393 x 1024 atoms of Oxygen is 63.58 mole O. I don't know for sure, but I think this is correct.

<u><em>I am NOT professional. There is a chance I am incorrect. Please reply to me if I've made a mistake.</em></u>

There is a 30g of be-11 it has a half-life of about 14 seconds how much will be left in 28 seconds
Lelu [443]

There will be 7.5 g of Be-11 remaining after 28 s.

If 14 s = 1 half-life, 28 s = 2 half-lives.

After the first half-life, ½ of the Be-11 (15 g) will disappear, and 15 g will remain.

After the second half-life, ½ of the 15 g (7.5 g) will disappear, and 7.5 g will remain.

In symbols,

<em>N</em> = <em>N</em>₀(½)^<em>n</em>

where

<em>n</em> = the number of half-lives

<em>N</em>₀ = the original amount

<em>N</em> = the amount remaining after <em>n</em> half-lives
