Question

How are monosaccharides made from a disaccharide ?? And what’s the reaction called ?

Answer 1

Glucose, galactose, and fructose are monosaccharide isomers, which means they all have the same chemical formula but differ structurally and chemically. Disaccharides form when two monosaccharides undergo a dehydration reaction (a condensation reaction); they are held together by a covalent bond. (Lumen Learning to learn more, or to cite)
