Sucrose breaks down into glucose (C6H12O6) and fructose(C6H12O6). glucose and fructose are, they have the same chemical composition but different structures. Bio connection: cells in our body create ATP through the process of cellular respiration. What product from the hydrolysis of sucrose is used to create ATP?
do you think the structure of fructose will allow for it to be directly used to create ATP? explain using the terms fructose, glucose, function, and isomers.
