(27 cards)
Yield one kind of monosaccharide upon hydrolysis
Homopolysaccharides
Yields mixtures of monosaccharides and derived products
Heteropolysaccharide
It is found abundantly in plant kingdom, it is also important constituent of human diet
Starch
Starch granule is made up of ___ amylose (300 glucose units in unbranched chain)
98%
What are the two molecules of starch
Amylose, amylopectin
Cornstarch is composed of ___ amylose, while waxy corn is more than ____ amylopectin
85%, 99%
____ is the single glucose molecule have a bond between the one carbon in the ring and four carbon in the ring they are joined by an _____
Amylose, oxygen
Is another component of starch and it also consist entirely of repeating change of glucose it is different from amylose because it has two different types of linkages between the glucose subunits
Amylopectin
Is found in the bulb of onions and garlic, it is white, odorless, tasteless powder, soluble in hot water, slightly soluble in cold water and insoluble in 60% alcohol
Inulin
It is optically active and yields fructose upon hydrolysis
Inulin
Is an animal starch found mostly in liver a storage material in muscle a source of energy
Glycogen
What is the result of iodine test in starch
Blue to black
What is the result of iodine test in inulin agar powder and cellulose
They have yellow to reddish brown color
What do you call the crystals found in phenylhydrazine test in starch
Glucosazone or maltosazone crystal
What do you call the crystal found in phenylhydrazine test in inulin
Fructosazone crystals
What do you call the crystal found in phenylhydrazine test of amyloid
Glucosazone crystals
What do you call the crystal found in the phenylhdrazine test of agar-agar
Galactosazone crystals
The most abundant organic compound making up around 50% or more of the carbon vegetation
Cellulose
On hydrolysis cellulose yields
Glucose
The repeating unit of cellulose
Cellobiose
Group of carbohydrates which differs from cellulose in that they are hydrolyzed upon boiling with mineral acids
Hemicellulose
The product of hydrolysis of hemicellulose are
Pantoses and hexoses
What is the color of hydrolysis of starch
Blue to black
What is the color of hydrolysis of amylodextrin
Purple
