Commercially, fructose is derived from sugar cane, sugar beets, and maize. High-fructose corn syrup is a mixture of glucose and fructose as monosaccharides.

The functions:One of the major biological functions of fructose is it acts as an alternative metabolite in providing energy especially when glucose is not sufficient while the metabolic energy demand is high. It can enter glycolysis and produce intermediates for cellular respiration.

Function-Transport proteins in the cell membrane allow for selective passage of specific molecules from the external environment. Each transport protein is specific to a certain molecule

The functions- It functions as scaffold material and supporting the cuticles of the epidermis and trachea as well as the peritrophic matrices lining the gut epithelium.

Also produced by small cells that line the small intestine and absorbs nutrients from food which passes through the intestine so it can be absorbed by the bloodstream.
Functions- breaks down lactose into smaller sugars,which is called glucose. Then gets absorbed by the bloodstream. ]]> 2021-09-17 21:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/perezb42/ub7yhi9a0gwioz4r/wish/1749669607 https://padlet.com/perezb42/ub7yhi9a0gwioz4r/wish/1749675929 location: Protein is found throughout the body—in muscle, bone, skin, hair, and 
virtually every other body part or tissue. 
function:They do most of the work in cells and are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs.]]> 2021-09-17 22:01:36 UTC https://padlet.com/perezb42/ub7yhi9a0gwioz4r/wish/1749675929 https://padlet.com/perezb42/ub7yhi9a0gwioz4r/wish/1757696807 Location- Amylase is a digestive enzyme predominantly secreted by the pancreas and salivary glands and found in other tissues in very small levels.
Function- Amylases' main function is to hydrolyze the glycosidic bonds in strach molecules, converting complex carbohydrates in simple sugars. There are three main classes of amylase enzymes; Alpha-, beta- and gamma-amylase, and each act on different parts of the carbohydrate molecule.]]> 2021-09-21 16:02:31 UTC https://padlet.com/perezb42/ub7yhi9a0gwioz4r/wish/1757696807
