Alpha Glucose - ANSWER✅✅✅
Amylose - ANSWER✅✅✅1 form of starch structure where all glucose residues are bonded through
1,4 linkages a linear fashion.
Beta Glucose - ANSWER✅✅✅
Cellulose - ANSWER✅✅✅A structural polysaccharide of plant cell walls, consisting of glucose
monomers joined by β glycosidic linkages.
Condensation reaction - ANSWER✅✅✅A chemical reaction in which two molecules become
covalently bonded to each other through the loss of a water molecule.
Disaccharide - ANSWER✅✅✅A molecule composed of two monosaccharides. Common
disaccharides include maltose, sucrose, and lactose.
Glycogen - ANSWER✅✅✅An extensively branched glucose storage polysaccharide found in the liver
and muscle of animals; the animal equivalent of starch.
Glycosidic bond - ANSWER✅✅✅The bond between sugars.
Hydolysis - ANSWER✅✅✅water breaks chemical bonds
Isomer - ANSWER✅✅✅Compounds with the same formula but different structures.
Monosaccharide - ANSWER✅✅✅A single sugar molecule such as glucose or fructose, the simplest
type of sugar.
Ribose - ANSWER✅✅✅
