Label the structures to show the monosaccharide units produced by hydrolysis of the disaccharide.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to label the structures that represent the monosaccharide units resulting from the hydrolysis of a disaccharide. This involves identifying and placing the correct labels from the provided answer bank onto the structures shown in the image.
Answer
Glucose and fructose
The monosaccharide units produced by the hydrolysis of the disaccharide shown are glucose and fructose.
Answer for screen readers
The monosaccharide units produced by the hydrolysis of the disaccharide shown are glucose and fructose.
More Information
Hydrolysis of disaccharides involves breaking the glycosidic bond with the addition of a water molecule, which results in the formation of two monosaccharide units.
Tips
A common mistake is not recognizing the specific disaccharide structure, leading to incorrect identification of the monosaccharides.
