Monosaccharide

Summary: Barry James, a 67-year-old man presents to the hospital with a recent onset of diarrhea and weight loss; patient has a history of lactose intolerance, vitamin B12 deficiency and intermittent diarrheal episodes that last 1-2 days. Peripheral edema was noted on the physical examination, and the abdominal examination was negative for distention and organomegaly. Question: Describe the pathophysiology and clinical presentations associated with small intestine malabsorption. Generate:…

NH2 Eg-histidine, Arginine Neutral amino acid-it means balanced like one acidic group and one basic group. Eg-glycine, Alanine Deviding amino acid consider about branched or non branched Monosaccharides It is the simplest form of carbohydrates.only consist one sugar that cannot be hydrolyzed into smaller sugar.It has some basic morphological features .They are sweating taste,Soluble in water,They are crystal in nature.Monosaccharides…

IV. Discussion The Concentration Gradients is known as known as diffusion. They are spontaneous process because there is no energy input at the beginning (Reece et al., 2011). Each substance could diffuse to its own concentration gradient without affected by the concentration of other substances (Scott 2015).In the first experiment of the Concentration Gradients. The color of the clear water was expected to change into the color of the potassium permanganate dye, which was purple. Observation…

It is also called anabolism or biogenesis. It is a enzyme-catalyzed method in which substrates are transformed into complex products. In this process simple compounds change or convert into other compounds or they join together to form macromolecules. Example: In this process gluneogenesis is responsible for the production of glucose from non carbohydrate originator. Actually biosynthesis is an enzyme-catalyzed process in which substrates are converted into complex compounds. 1. Biosynthesis…

To test for monosaccharides, a 3-mL of Benedict’s solution was added to a new 5-mL sample of cheeseburger slushie. It was heated in a beaker of boiling water for five minutes until the mixture became orange. To test for starches, 5 drops of Lugol’s solution was added to…

Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration processes are thought of as completely opposite. They are completely opposite processes locked in a never-ending cycle. That cycle helps maintain the Earth's atmosphere to keep the planet inhabitable by making the air breathable. The processes both have many differences between them, but they also have many similarities. They cause the perfect balance that's essential to life, as we know it. The processes help…

meant to enhance the color and flavor. Freemantle (2017) notes that the high fructose corn syrup, usually derived from corn start, does not only contain the fructose content but also other sugars and glucose. Similar to glucose, fructose is a monosaccharide and is usually sweeter than the table sugar despite being cheaper and easier to produce and handle. An important fact is that each molecule of table sugar, also called granulated sugar, is comprised of fructose and glucose (Freemantle, 2017).…

Sudan III Stain Test, Biuret Test and many others. With these tests, the nutrients from an unknown solutions can be identified in the solution. The Benedict’s test is used for identifying reducing sugars, which are simple sugars that include monosaccharides and some disaccharides. The Benedict’s reagent is made of Copper (II) sulfate ion which reduces to Copper (I) during the test. It is made by adding copper sulfate with sodium citrate and carbonate that is dissolved in 400mLs of water…

eaten chocolate and when they haven’t. Review of Literature: In all chocolate bars the ingredient of highest content is sugar, this sugar is sucrose. Sucrose is a disaccharide which is formed from glucose and fructose which are monosaccharides joined together. The monosaccharide glucose is the most abundant, and has many uses in the…

diffusing into the bag and nothing was diffusing out. We then tested for the presence of monosaccharides and some disaccharides using the Benedict 's Test. What we found was that the dialysis bag and the beaker all contained sugar while the control (water) did not. It makes sense that the dialysis bag would test positive for the presence of sugars because we had put glucose and starch into the bag. Glucose is a monosaccharide which is what the Benedict’s Test was looking for. It also made sense…
