How do the functions of cellulose and starch differ, even though both are made of glucose?
Why can't humans digest cellulose, while cows can? What role do microbes play in this?
How does the structure of glucose allow it to be so readily used in cellular respiration?
What is the difference between alpha-glucose and beta-glucose, and why is this important in polysaccharide formation?
How does the glycosidic bond form during the synthesis of disaccharides like sucrose and lactose?
Why are reducing sugars able to participate in redox reactions while non-reducing sugars cannot?
