Digestion of an unlabeled carbohydrate results in increased amounts of the monosaccharides glucose and galactose. Which is most likely to be the original, unlabeled carbohydrate?

lactose  

Explanation:

Lactose is a disaccharide sugar made up of glucose and galactose monosaccharide subunits. In lactose, galactose and glucose molecules form a covalent glycosidic bond denoted as an (β-1→4) glycosidic bond. Lactase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes lactose into glucose and galactose, which can be then absorbed into the bloodstream by the cells lining the small intestine. In an alkaline solution, lactose may also isomerize to generate a mixture of lactulose (20-30%) and lactose (70-80%).

chemical weathering

explanation:

i think the miocene epoch spans the time from 23 million to 12 million years ago.
