Polysaccharides are more difficult to digest than monosaccharides because unlike monosaccharides which are single, separate glucose units, polysaccharides are composed of many glucose units which are covalently linked together by glycosidic bonds.
Digestion of polysaccharides is more difficult because these bonds have to be broken up and therefore the body will take longer to digest the polysaccharides.
Since monosaccharides have no linkage to any other molecule, they tend to yield energy to the body much faster than polysaccharides and therefore monosaccharide containing foods will give the body energy faster than polysaccharide containing food.
The answer is theory which is a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural and subject to experimentation, in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact.
Answer: The three main stages of cellular respiration (aerobic) would include Glycolysis in the cytoplasm, the Kreb's Cycle in the Mitochondrial Matrix and the Electron Transport Chain in the Mitochondrial Membrane.
Explanation:
A reducing sugar is any sugar that either has an aldehyde group or is
capable of forming one in a reaction thru isomerism. The first example
that should come to mind is glucose, which can form a <span>β(1→4)</span>
linkage. Sucrose, on the otherhand, is a non-reducing sugar. And is
bascially the opposite of a reducing sugar. It doesn't form or have
aldehydes in a basic environmet.Hope this helps!!
