breaks down fats into glycerol and fatty acids. It is used to mobilize stored energy during fasting or exercise.

23
Q

a condition that disturbs the body normal acid-base balance.

24
what happens to fat fragments that combine with each other
they form ketone bodies
25
Is the sweetest of simple sugars, it is found in honey, most fruits and some vegetables. It is converted into glucose in the body.
Fructose
26
Not found free in foods. It is produced from lactose by digestion and is converted into glucose in the body.
Galactose
27
Double-sugars are made up of 2 monosaccharides. They are sweet and unlike monosaccharides, they must be change into simple sugars by hydrolysis before they can be absorbed.
Disaccharides
28
give types of disaccharides
Sucrose Lactose maltose
29
Ordinary table-sugar-granulated, powdered or brown. Composed of glucose and fructose. process from cane and beet sugar
Sucrose
30
what happens to sucrose upon digestion
turns into glucose and galactose
31
Found in milk and milk products except cheese. Remains in the intestine longer than other sugars and encourages the growth of certain useful bacteria.
Lactose
32
It is converted into glucose and galactose upon digestion and is less soluble and less sweet than fructose.
lactose
33
Produced by hydrolysis of starch and is converted into glucose in digestion. Not found free in foods.
Maltose
34
where does maltose occur
in malt products and in germinating cereals.
35
where can maltose be found
certain infant formula, beer, and malt beverage
36
composed of many molecules of simple sugars.

Polysaccharides are also commonly known as?
complex sugars
