Question
Chapter 11, Problem 3P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The correct option that is not a reducing sugar should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Carbohydrates are a large group of organic compounds that are present in foods, living tissues. These include sugars, cellulose, and starch. These are comprised of hydrogen and oxygen in a similar ratio as in water (2:1). They are usually broken down to release the energy in the animal body. These are of three types: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.

- Express your answer briefly, not more than 30 words. Express your answer in your own words. What is the metabolic basis for the observation that many adults cannot ingest large quantities of milk without developing gastric difficulties? No animal can digest cellulose. Reconcile this statement with the fact that many animals are herbivores that depend heavily on cellulose as a food source. Some athletes eat diets high in carbohydrates before an event. Suggest a biochemical basis for this practice. Briefly indicate the role of glycoproteins as antigenic determinants for blood groups.
