Question

Write one example for Disaccharides.

Hint:

Remember: Sucrose is the most widely consumed disaccharide in everyday diets.

Answer 1

Two monosaccharide molecules combine to form a disaccharide, a type of carbohydrate.
Sucrose, the household sugar, is a common disaccharide.
This sugar is composed of one glucose molecule bonded to one fructose molecule.
It is naturally present in sugarcane, sugar beet, fruits, and vegetables.
Lactose (milk sugar) and maltose (malt sugar) are other examples of disaccharides.
Disaccharides provide energy and are broken down into simple sugars during digestion.
