A disaccharide is a type of sugar composed of two monosaccharide molecules joined together through a chemical bond. Common disaccharides include sucrose (table sugar), lactose (milk sugar), and maltose (malt sugar). They are broken down during digestion into their individual monosaccharide components for absorption.

A carbonhydrate made up of two sugar units is a?
disaccharide.
What are two monosaccharides being hooked together?
If two monosacharides are together, this then means it is classified as a disacharide. However, if it has many more than just two monosacharides 'joined together', then that means it is classified as a polysacheride. Fat cell structures are commonly known as triglycerides, and they consist of fatty acid chains and glycerol.

How much sugar is in lactose?
Sugar as a general term means cane sugar which is absent in lactose but lactose is also a disacharide sugar found in milk , its common name is milk sugar.
How many atoms of hydrogen make up sugar?
In table sugar (C12H22O11) there are 22 hydrogens in this disacharide. In monosacharides ther are normally 12 H's (C6H12O6)
What is maltilol?
Maltilol is a sugar substitute commonly sold under the brand names Maltisweet or Maltisorb. Maltitol is a disacharide made by hydrogenation of maltose sugar obtained from starch. Its high sweetness allows it to be used without being mixed with other sweeteners.

What is the product of joining 2 glucose molecules?
When you link two glucose molecules together you are going through dehydration synthesis which is getting rid of the water in the molecules and by doing that you have water, H2O, as the by-product.
Is table sugar a disaccharide?
Glucose is a type of monosaccharide, not a disaccharide. Disaccharides are made up of two monosaccharides bonded together, so some disaccharides have glucose as a component. Sucrose for example is made up of a glucose molecule and a fructose molecule, and Maltose is made up of two glucose molecules.
