Laevorotatory isomer, often known as I-form or denoted by the sign, is the optical isomer that spins plane polarised light to the left (anticlockwise) Glycolysis & Krebs cycle will study later Glycolysis pathway Haworth projection) Fischer projection formula A primary alcohol a “–CH2OH” groupis an alcohol in which the hydroxy group is bonded to a primary carbon atom. These have converted to – COOH (Carboxylic group). Similarly, aldehyde group converted to Carboxylic group.  A carbonyl group is a chemically organic functional group composed of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom --> [C=O] Epimers are carbohydrates that differ in the location of the -OH group in one location. Both D-glucose and D-galactose are the best examples -OH group on the second ‘C ‘ atom right side in sorbital and on left side in Mannitol  No –OH here Pentose Cyclic Structure Or Unhydride Structure & N-acetyl-D-Glucosamine GlaN GluN ManN
