What is a complex sugar

Biology
2 answers:
storchak [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Complex Carbohydrates: Also know as polysaccharides (poly = many), these carbohydrates have more than two units of glucose (sugar) linked together. Polysaccharides are generally not sweet and are not water soluble. Starches and dietary fiber are complex carbohydrates.

Complex carbs pack in more nutrients than simple carbs. They're higher in fiber and digest more slowly. This also makes them more filling, which means they're a good option for weight control. They're also ideal for people with type 2 diabetes because they help manage blood sugar spikes after meals.

Simple carbs — also known as simple sugars — contain one or two sugar molecules, whereas complex carbs have three or more. A simple sugar may be a mono- or disaccharide.

3.a An antibiotic is added to a large population of bacteria. Explain why not all bacteria die?
drek231 [11]

Answer: Antibiotic Resistant Mutation

Explanation: Not all of the bacteria die because there are individuals in the population that have an antibiotic resistant mutation, which causes them to be adapted to dealing with the antibiotic. There will be a large population of bacteria again because the ones with the mutation survive, reproduce, and pass the antibiotic resistance trait on.
