Question
Chapter 11, Problem 36P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The specificity of sucrose is to be explained on the basis of potential substrates.
Concept introduction:
Sucrose is a disaccharide that is formed by the combination of the substrates glucose and fructose. These substrates combine with each other in the presence of certain enzymes.
